Consonant clusters are a stumbling block for many children in the phonics screening check. Use these cards and games to support the children in recognising consonant blends and then blending them in words.

You may also have identified in practise that children sometimes reverse letters to create digraphs, e.g. mistakenly reading thrand as tharnd or strok as stork. This resource also practises this scenario through the word builder cards.

I hope they help!

Phonics screening check practise bundle

Revision, identification and troubleshooting of common stumbling blocks for children in the phonics screening check. 90% of my class passed the screening check last year using these resources to boost my phonics provision. Working with parents was so important and sending home the consonant blends and clusters was a great way for them to help at home. This resource contains the diagnostic tool, flash cards, games, real words, alien words, phoneme frames and word builder resources to support children as they prepare for the phonics screening check. Included in the bundle: \- phonics screening check diagnostic tool \- consonant blends (initial and final) activities and flash cards \- consonant cluster activities and flash cards (also available for free) \- split digraph posters, flash cards and phoneme frames \- powerpoints for teaching split digraphs (also available for free) \- phase 3 decodable words practise \- phase 5 decodable words practise
