What’s included? This download includes x5 pdfs, portrait in colour each featuring ten images that all begin with one sound - c, f, k, s, t What’s it for? This resource is to enable learners to practise identifying the first (initial) sound (phoneme) of objects (images) and match these with the correct, matching letter (grapheme). Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in year one as well as older students needing additional learning support, revisiting any/all of these sounds. How to use it? An adult prints each sheet out (ideally onto card) and cuts along the dotted lines, including to separate the ‘letters’ from the ‘images’ (instructions are included on each sheet itself). These pieces (images and letters) can then be placed on a table top for learners to match - the image with the matching/correct initial letter sound as a two part mini jigsaw puzzle. Each letter only fits the images which have the same initial letter. This is a fun and engaging way to practise recognising these letters and identifying the correct initial letter (phonics) sound for ten images (per letter). Resource Details The images chosen all have a clear initial letter sound at the beginning but are not words which can easily be sounded out. The focus of this activity is purely to identify the initial letter sound for these images - the cross (top right of each image) indicates that these images are not to be sounded out. I have grouped the letters of the alphabet together. This sheet is part of the ‘Yellow Set’ and designed to be used with letters c, f, k, s, t. Exploring this set together gives learners the opportunity to become more familiar with these letters by looking at them more closely. Other sets in this same design are available. The layout of every letter/sound in this set is in the same format, making this a predictable and structured activity, ideal to keep learners engaged and independent. Resource layout The font used is ‘Sassoon Infant Std’ - size 120, so a large, ‘easy to read’ size. The images included for each letter are: c comb cookies (not biscuits!) crocodile camera calculator clothes or clothing castle candle carrot colours f fireworks (flashing!) factory furniture fly four five fruit fire engine football feathers k kettle koala kitten kookaburra kimono karate kayak kiwi kennel killer whale s swan screwdriver squirrel salt strawberry spider suitcases submarine stethoscope scissors t tomato toucan (Toco!) table triangle tiger turkey trousers turtle teddy tennis Important message… ANY issues with any of this resource please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes.

What’s included? Includes ALL x26 alphabet letters with the same colour (grey) outline - so sets can be used in any combination - mix and match which letters/sounds to focus on depending on the needs of your learner/s. This download includes x22 pdfs, portrait in colour each featuring five/ten images that all begin with one sound - a b c d e/o f g h i/u j k l m n p q r s t v/y w x/z. Letter ‘x’ is the only exception where the x sound is at the END of those words/images. What’s it for? This resource is to enable learners to practise identifying the first (initial) sound (phoneme) of objects (images) and match these with the correct, matching letter (grapheme). I have also grouped these letters into coloured sets (red, orange, yellow, green and blue - also available in my TES shop). However, this black and white (grey) set enables adults to focus on the sets learners need additional exposure to. How to use it? An adult prints the letter sheets (required) out (ideally onto card) and cuts along the dotted lines, including to separate the ‘letters’ from the ‘images’ (instructions are included on each sheet itself). These pieces (images and letters) can then be placed on a table top for learners to match. Learners are to match the image with the correct initial letter sound as a two part mini jigsaw puzzle. Each letter only fits the images which have the same initial letter (end/final sound for x). This is a fun and engaging way to practise recognising these letters and identifying the correct initial letter (phonics) sound for five/ten images (per letter). Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one as well as older students needing additional learning support, revisiting any/all of these sounds. Resource Details The images chosen all have a clear initial letter sound at the beginning but are not words which can easily be sounded out. The focus of this activity is purely to identify the initial letter sound for these images - the cross (top right of each image) indicates that these images are not to be sounded out. A sound-out-able version of this ‘Alphabet Match’ activity (with matching worksheets) for every letter (using Phase 2 and 3 sounds only) is available in my TES shop. The layout of every letter/sound in this set is in the same format, making this a predictable and structured activity, ideal to keep learners engaged and independent.

What’s included? This download includes x26 simple, predictable alphabet rhymes for every letter of the alphabet - in colour AND black and white (so x52 sheets in total). Every rhyme has been set out landscape orientation. As a bonus(!) two sets of ‘pointers’ are included - left and right handed. What’s it for? These rhymes have been designed for learners to practise reading simple words (images make it clear what the noun-words are!) and practise each phonic sound using a pointer (or pointy finger!) Some rhymes are more ‘silly’ than others(!) This is a unique, fun and engaging way to practise reading and phonics that all learners will enjoy. These rhymes also provide a great opportunity to practise using one to one correspondence - an important early reading skill. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in year one as well as older students needing additional learning support. Resource Details The layout of every letter/sound rhyme is in the same format, making this a predictable and structured activity, ideal to keep learners engaged and independent. Resource layout The font used is ‘Sassoon Infant Std’ - size 50, so a good, ‘easy to read’ size. Each rhyme follows this structure - Ants on apples a, a, a. Ants on apples a, a, a. Ants on apples a, a, a. Ants on apples! Letters a, b, c, d, e, f ,g h, i, j, l, m, n, p, s include the word ‘on’ within the rhyme. Letters k, o, q, r, t, v, w, x, y, z include the word ‘and’ within the rhyme. The letter ‘u’ is ‘upside-down umbrellas, u, u, u’. How to use this resource Learners might like to practise reading these on their own, in pairs or small groups or even as a class during a whole carpet session, reading/singing along together. Suggestions I recommend printing out the colour versions of these (the colours look so lovely!) and laminating each rhyme to help keep them in good condition. You may wish to introduce these rhymes alongside learning these sounds for the first time and have a set (e.g. of x6) of every rhyme printed out and laminated for groups to use as an extension/quiet activity. Or, these rhymes may be good to introduce later to recap on some sounds which may be proving to be more tricky to remember. My classes of early years and year one children were really motivated to use these and very good at practising them quietly to themselves using ‘whispery voices’ (so cute!) I found that all learners really enjoyed using these with a ‘pointer’ which I had a pot of (pointers!) stored with the rhymes, ready to use. Two sets of ‘pointers’ are included - left and right handed. Important message… ANY issues with any of this resource please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes.

What’s included? This download includes x3 A4, portrait pdf sheet to practise reading and writing CVC words mostly within Phase 2. Two sounds in this set - (j and sh) are in Phase 3. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in year one as well as older students needing additional learning support. What’s it for? This activity is interactive and encourages learners to sound out and read simple CVC words and think about what these words mean. Some words of course may have more than one meaning, however for the purpose of this activity I have only provided one illustration for every word. For words which are ‘new’ to them learners may need to work by process of elimination to identify the correct word/picture combination to record this (in writing) on the sheet provided. Resource Details The layout includes one ‘CVC wheel’ to make with easy to follow instructions. Once the wheel is assembled once turned different initial letters are revealed to make x9 ‘_ug’ CVC words. ALL words are ‘real’ (not ‘nonsense’) words. Words/pictures included are: bug dug hug jug (j is a phase 3 sound) mug rug slug shrug (sh is a phase 3 sound) tug Differentiation Also included is one sheet in two levels of difficulty. The first sheet only has the initial sound missing (easier), the second sheet has ALL letters missing - for learners to write on the lines provided (more challenging). The level of difficulty is indicated by an icon at the base of each sheet (right side) - green for easier, red for more challenging. There is a clear space for learners to write their name at the base of each sheet (left side). The CVC phonics wheel can be reused time and again. Suggestion I suggest printing and making the phonics wheel out of card which is stronger so more robust than paper and easier to turn.

What’s included? x2 sheets (x10 picture and x10 word cards) for CVC words focusing on words with the ‘a’ sound. Both sheets are portrait orientation, pdf format. What’s it for? This CVC phonics/reading practise activity set has been designed to be a simple, predictable activity to promote independence and consolidate learning. This activity is ideal for groups/individuals to be getting on with independently. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in year one as well as older students needing additional learning support. How to use it? An adult needs to print and pre-cut the cards into rectangles (dotted guide lines make where to cut clear). The set of cards can be placed on a carpet/table top. Learners read each word by sounding out the individual phonemes, they then match this to the picture from this set. Phoneme ‘dots’ have been included under every grapheme so that learners know how many sounds to say as they read (sound out) the words. Resource Details… The words/pictures included use phonemes/graphemes from Phases 2 and 3 but mainly Phase 2. Words included are - Red (Set a) cat/crab/map/pan/mat/van/hat/bat/bag/cap Sets e/i/o/u are also available in my TES shop. Each set is a different colour to avoid cards becoming mixed and to help finding a relevant matching card easier.

What’s included? x2 sheets (x10 picture/CVC word cards) focusing on the ‘e’ sound. Both sheets are portrait orientation, pdf format. Also included are instructions of how to make a ‘Function Machine’ and what is needed to make one. These cards are designed to be used with a Function Machine, however you may have another use in mind… Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one as well as older students needing additional learning support. What’s it for? As said, these CVC cards have been designed to be printed double-sided on card to use with the ‘Function Machine’ (~instructions of how to make one of these included) to practise sounding out simple CVC (Phase 2 phonics) words - learners read each word then push the card into the top function machine slot and can see if they are correct when the picture pops out of the slot below. This activity has been designed to be a simple, interactive, predictable activity to promote independence and consolidate learning. This activity is ideal for individuals to be getting on with independently. How to use it? An adult needs to print these card (double-sided) onto card and and pre-cut the cards into x10 separate rectangle cards. The set of cards can then be placed on a table top, positioned with a ‘Function Machine’ for learners to use on their own or perhaps with adult support (initially). Learners read each word by sounding out the individual phonemes, they then push the card into the top slot of the function machine and find out if they are correct when the picture pops out of the lower slot… Phoneme ‘dots’ have been included under every grapheme so that learners know how many sounds to say as they read (sound out) the words. Resource Details… The words/pictures included use phonemes/graphemes from Phases 2 and 3 but mainly Phase 2. The words included in this set are - Orange (Set e) peg, bell, hen, red, bed, dress, web, ten, yes, pen Sets for ALL vowels (doubled sided or as separate cards to read and match) are also available in my TES shop. Each set is a different colour to avoid cards becoming mixed up. Important message… ANY issues with any of this resource please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes. Feedback of this resource would be brilliant. Thank you! New online service coming soon with FREE downloads (including this resource) available!
