What’s included?
This download includes x3 pdfs, portrait in colour each featuring ten/five images that all begin with one sound - a, e, i, o, u.
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 grouped the letters of the alphabet together. This sheet is part of the ‘Red Set’ and designed to be used with letters a, e, i, o, u. 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/coming soon.
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 (or five) 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 and practising reading using one to one correspondence.
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 either available in my TES shop now or coming soon.
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:
a

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 grouped the letters of the alphabet together. This sheet is part of the ‘Orange Set’ and designed to be used with letters b, d, g, p and q. I have grouped these letters of the alphabet together according to their similar ‘shape’ and as I know confusing b and d can be a common issue for learners. 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 coming.

What’s included?
This download includes x24 pdf pages, portrait orientation in colour featuring six sets of ten images that begin with the sounds m/d/g/o/c/k with x2 sheets (featuring the same images) providing x10 words to sound out and write for each letter. The words to sound out only use letters found in Phases 2 and 3.
What’s it for?
Page 1 is designed to be used with all letters in this orange set - match initial letter sounds with images. Pages 2 and 3 are for practising sounding out and writing words on. Page 4 shows the ‘answers’.
How to use it?
Page 1. An adult prints page 1 out (ideally onto card) and cuts along the dotted lines, including to separate the ‘letters’ from the ‘images’ (instructions are included on page 1). The set 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 (correct) letter only fits the correct image.
Page 2. Learners are to sound out and write the words for the images featured on the sheet, one image per box. Page 2 is easier to complete as lines show how many sounds are in each word. Any ‘red’ lines to write on indicate a ‘tricky’ sound as it may be difficult to hear clearly when the word is spoken or may be an irregular spelling (not yet learnt). Learners may need help with these letters/sounds.
Page 3. Learners are to sound out and write the words for the images featured on the line - there is one image per box. Page 3 is the more tricky than page 2 as learners only have one ‘line’ to write the words on (without an indication of how many sounds are in each word).
Page 4 clearly shows the answers - set out in the same format as pages 2 and 3 for learners to use themselves to crosscheck their work independently - encouraging autonomy. Red letters identify a tricky/irregular spelling.
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 tick in each image box on page 1 (top right) indicates that this image is a word which CAN be sounded out.
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.

The font used on page 1 is ‘Sassoon Infant Std’ - size 120, so a large, ‘easy to read’ size. The font is the same type on page 4 - size 40.

What’s included?
x10 sheets (picture/CVC word cards) for CVC words focusing on a, e, i, o and u. Split into x5 sets (x10 picture/word cards per set). 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?
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.
Each set is a different colour to avoid cards becoming mixed up.
Words included in each set are -
Red (Set a)
cap, cat, crab, map, pan, mat, van, hat, bat, bag (Phase 3 sounds v)
Orange (Set e)
peg, bell, hen, red, bed, dress, web, ten, yes, pen (Phase 3 sounds w, y)
Yellow (Set** i**)
fig, bin, zip, pig, lips, pink, pip, wig, stick (not to be confused with ‘twig’ !), pin (Phase 3 sounds w, z)
Green (Set** o**)
dog, shop, frog, rock, cogs, clock, box, pot, fox, socks (Phase 3 sounds x)
Blue (Set** u**’)
mug, bun (may be confused with ‘cake’ or ‘cupcake’ though in Yorkshire (where I am from!) this is a ‘bun’!), duck, cup, truck, slug, sun, bug, plug, hut (Phase 3 sounds - none in this set)
Sets for ALL vowels separately (both doubled sided or as separate cards to read and match) are also available in my TES shop.

What’s included?
This download includes four A4, pdf sheets (portrait) to practise handwriting x4 lowercase letter sounds (graphemes) - ear, air, ure, er.
Resource details
This activity has been designed to write straight on. Each letter has a clear ‘starting dot’ so learners know where to place their pencil to begin and dots on top of each letter provide guidance of where exactly to write.
Set 9
There are nine previous sets in the same design for all of the letters in Phase 2. Like those sets this set (9) includes four designs, each numbered and each slightly differently according to the design and level that best suits your learner/s. The numbers 1 - 4 (at the top of each sheet) and the cover image left to right shows the levels in order of easiest (1 - most support, less challenge) to hardest (4 - least support, more challenge).
The font used is Sassoon Infant Std - size 100.
Each set of letters has been included on a line - to model how letters should look when positioned correctly on a line.
There is a clear space at the top of each sheet for learners to write their name.
Page 1
Learners have one set (row) of each sound to write - using the starting dot and dotted lines (on top of each pale grey letter shape) as a guide.
Page 2
Learners have two sets (rows) of each letter/sound to write - using the dotted lines as a guide for the first line. The second line includes the same (grey) letter shapes for learners to trace over without a starting dot and without the dotted line guides.
Page 3
Learners have two sets (rows) of each letter/sound to write - using the dotted lines as a guide for the first line. The second line includes some grey letter shapes for learners to trace over with a starting dot. There is also a blank space (with starting dots to help) for learners to write their own letters after this for every letter.
Page 4
Learners have two sets (rows) of each letter/sound to write - using the dotted lines as a guide for the first line. The second line is a blank line for learners to write each support without any scaffolding support.
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.

The numbers 1 - 4 (at the top of each sheet) and the cover image left to right shows the levels in order of easiest (1 - most support, less challenge) to hardest (4 - least support, more challenge).
The font used is Sassoon Infant Std - size 100.
Each set of letters has been included on a line - to model how letters should look when positioned correctly on a line.
There is a clear space at the top of each sheet for learners to write their name.
Page 1
Learners have one set (row) of each sound to write - using the starting dot and dotted lines (on top of each pale grey letter shape) as a guide.
Page 2
Learners have two sets (rows) of each letter/sound to write - using the dotted lines as a guide for the first line. The second line includes the same (grey) letter shapes for learners to trace over without a starting dot and without the dotted line guides.
Page 3
Learners have two sets (rows) of each letter/sound to write - using the dotted lines as a guide for the first line. The second line includes some grey letter shapes for learners to trace over with a starting dot. There is also a blank space (with starting dots to help) for learners to write their own letters after this for every letter.

What’s included?
This download includes x15 A4, portrait pdf sheets to practise reading and writing CVC words mostly within Phase 2. Sounds from Phase 3 include j, v, w, z and sh.
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?
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 ‘new’ words 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
There are x5 (colour coded) sets included here. Each set includes one ‘CVC wheel’ to make with easy to follow instructions. Once the wheel is assembled when turned different initial letters are revealed to make x9 CVC words per wheel. These words correspond with the pictures and words on the sheets included.
ALL words are ‘real’ (not ‘nonsense’) words.
CVC words include the sounds ‘an’, ‘et’, ‘ip’, ‘og’ and ‘ug’
Differentiation
Also included with each set 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.
