I love to make clear and colourful resources and can't resist using rainbow colours which so often help make learning visually clearer.

Ants on apples rhyme - Letter ‘h’ Sample!

Ants on apples rhyme - Letter ‘h’ Sample!

(0)
What’s included? This download includes one simple, predictable alphabet rhyme for the letter ‘h’ - in colour AND black and white (so x2 sheets in total). This rhyme has been set out landscape orientation - the complete ‘alphabet set’ is available in my TES shop! What’s it for? This rhyme is part of an alphabet set (of the same layout) and has been designed for learners to practise reading simple words (images make noun-words clear) and each rhyme practises one phonic sound - this rhyme focuses on ‘h’. How to use it? Using a pointer (or pointy finger!) learners point to each word/sound as they say/sing it out loud, some rhymes are more ‘silly’ than others(!) In this rhyme the horses wear the hats! 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 years one and two 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 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. The font used is ‘Sassoon Infant Std’ - size 50, so a good, ‘easy to read’ size. This rhyme is - Hats on horses h, h, h. Hats on horses h, h, h. Hats on horses h, h, h. Hats on horses! Suggestions 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. 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. Important message… ANY issues with any of this please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes AND I am happy to create a different version if you have an idea just let me know - I’d love to hear from you! Feedback of this resource would be wonderful! Thank you!

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 - Orange (Set e) peg/bell/hen/red/bed/dress/web/ten/yes/pen Sets a/i/o/u are also available in my TES shop.

The pictures provide clues to assist reading unfamiliar words (e.g. lions, zoo, sheep, lambs, chicken, grapes, bake) to encourage learners to use a range of reading skills when decoding these sentences if they are not at a level to read them on-sight. Pages 3 and 4 clearly show the answers in exactly the same format to encourage learners to be autonomous in checking their own learning. Each mistake is circled in pink and corrected clearly underneath to make clear to learners exactly where and what each mistake was.

Handwriting Phase 3 Phonics (Sets 5-9) All sounds

(0)
What’s included? This download includes x24 A4, pdf sheets (portrait) to practise handwriting all lowercase letter sounds (graphemes) in Phase 3 (phonics) - this includes sounds j, v, w, x, y, z, zz, qu, ng, ch, sh, th, ai, ee, ie, oa, oo, ar, or, ur, ow, oi, ear, air, ure, er. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support. 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. x9 sets There are nine sets in the same design for all of the letters in Phase 2/3. All sets include 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.

High frequency word Read/match - Nouns ('tricky' words)

2 Resources
What’s included? This download includes x5 sheets. x4 in portrait orientation, x1 in landscape orientation, all pdf format. What’s it for? This activity set has been designed to give learners an opportunity to look more closely at a set of the first 100/200 high frequency words and practise seeing these words on sight while matching these words with images. This set focuses on tricky words, all ‘nouns’ - all words included have a matching image. This includes two simple, predictable activities to promote independence and consolidate learning. This activity is ideal for individuals/groups to be getting on with independently or those needing some individual 1:1 support. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for Early Years children who are learning these words for the first time, pupils in years one and two who need some practise/reinforcement of these words. This resource is also suitable for older learners with additional learning needs. How to use it? An adult can pre-cut along dotted lines provided and the set of x17 words (and images) can be shuffled and placed face-up on the carpet/a table top for learners to look at carefully and try to match. When completing the cut/match sheet learners may be able to cut out the words (at the base of each sheet) themselves. Resource Details… These words are all from the first 100/200 high frequency word list and are all ‘tricky’. Red letters indicate the ‘tricky’ part/s. Some letters are underlined - this indicates that together these (underlined) letters have one sound. A ‘key’ is included at the top of each sheet (top, right). The lilac box outline colour indicates that these words are all part of the ‘nouns’ set. The small, white cross (top left of each image box) indicates that these words are not intended to be sounded out. Adults may wish to provide learners with one sheet at a time (cut up and ready to ‘match’) or all x4 sheets at once. All sheets provide learners with an opportunity to become more familiar with seeing and reading these words on-sight. The words on sheets 1 to 4 have been arranged alphabetically and are as follows: ball bear clothes door eyes giant head horse house magic mouse money one school shoe two water Important message… ANY issues with any of this resource please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes.

High frequency words Read/match - Nouns (words to sound out)

(0)
What’s included? This download includes x9 sheets, all portrait orientation, pdf format. What’s it for? This activity set has been designed to give learners an opportunity to look more closely at a set of the first 100/200 high frequency words. This set is ‘nouns’ which can be read by sounding out the words as well as matching each word with its corresponding image. This is a simple, predictable activity to promote independence and consolidate learning. This activity is ideal for individuals/groups to be getting on with independently or those needing some individual 1:1 support. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for Early Years children who are learning these sounds (and words) for the first time, pupils in Year 1 who need some practise/reinforcement of these sounds/words. This resource is also suitable for older learners with additional learning needs. How to use it? An adult can pre-cut along dotted lines provided and the set of x45 words (and images) can be shuffled and placed face-up on the carpet/a table top for learners to read and match. Resource Details… These words are all from the first 100/200 high frequency word lists. In the ‘word box’ at the top-right there is a coloured triangle. The colour indicates which phonics phase this word fits in with. Pink triangles indicate that the words are from ‘phase 2’, purple triangles indicate that the words are from ‘phase 3’ and turquoise triangles indicate that the words are from ‘phase 5’. The ‘key’ at the top of each sheet also makes this colour coded system clear. You can use this to help you introduce the words according to which phonics level your learner/s is/are at. Red letters indicate ‘tricky’ part/s where, e.g. the sound may be pronounced differently depending on dialect. Alternatively, the sound may have more than one of the same letter (and sound) which is possible to sound out but irregular. For example in the word ‘eggs’ the second ‘g’ is red yet both ‘g’s’ are underlined together. The underline indicates the number of sounds. Where two letters are underlined together - these two letters (together) have one sound. For example in the word ‘fish’ the ‘f’ is underlined on its own, ‘i’ is underlined on its own and ‘sh’ is underlined with the ‘s’ and ‘h’ together - this word therefore has four letters but three sounds, f, i , sh. A ‘key’ is included at the top of each sheet (top, right). The lilac box outline colour indicates that these words are all part of the ‘nouns’ set. The small, white tick (top-left of each image box) indicates that these words are intended to be sounded out. The words on sheets 1 to 9 have been arranged in alphabetical order.
