What’s included? x4 sheets (activities and answers) for Phase 2 Set 1 (letters - s a t p i n). Portrait orientation, pdf format. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one as well as students needing additional learning support. What’s it for? This activity set has been designed to practise and reinforce the first six sounds in Phase 2 - s a t p i n. Learners sound out the words on the ‘word cards’ and match these to the images on the ‘picture cards’. Answers are clearly presented on pages 3 and 4 for quick easy reference - encouraging learners to be autonomous. All words in this resource only use the sounds ‘s a t p i n’. This ‘Phase 2’ phonics practise activity set (1) has been designed to be a simple, predictable matching activity to promote independence and consolidate knowledge of the first set of letters/sounds introduced. This activity is ideal for individuals/groups to be getting on with independently or for an adult to use to support learners needing some extra help/to revisit these sounds. Phase 2, set 2 (sounds m d g o c k) is also available (in same design) in my TES shop if you like this one. How to use it? The adult can pre-cut the x16 rectangular shaped picture cards (x8) and word cards (x8) (pages 1 and 2). Grey dotted lines guide where to cut. These x16 cards can then be shuffled and placed on a table top for learners to read and match. Resource Details… The words on the word cards only use the letters s, a, t, p, i, n. These words are: snap pin pants spin tin sit pan snip Learners may find ‘snip’, snap’, ’spin’ and ‘sit’ more tricky to match as these four cards do not link directly to a noun picture card. ‘Snap’ links to a ‘crocodile’, ‘snip’ to ‘scissors’, ’spin’ to a ‘globe’ and ‘sit’ to the cat which is ‘sitting’ on a chair - encouraging learners to think a bit more about the meaning of the words on the cards.

What’s included? x4 sheets (activities and answers) for Phase 2 Set 1 (letters - m d g o c k). Portrait orientation, pdf format. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one as well as students needing additional learning support. What’s it for? This activity set has been designed to practise and reinforce the first six sounds in Phase 2 - s a t p i n AND m d g o c k. Learners sound out the words on the ‘word cards’ and match these to the images on the ‘picture cards’.

These x16 cards can then be shuffled and placed on a table top for learners to read and match. Resource Details… The words on the word cards only use the letters s, a, t, p, i, n, m, d, g, o, c, k (from sets 1 AND 2) These words are: dog map pig cap pot mat pod cogs Learners may find ‘pod’, ‘cogs’ and ‘mat’ more tricky to match as these three words are not as obvious/may be ‘new’ concepts to learners, encouraging learners to think a bit more about the meaning of the words on the cards. E.g. some learners may not know that a ‘pea’ grows inside of a ‘pod’. Learners may not know/be familiar with ‘cogs’ (or know they are called) and learners may confuse ‘cat’ with ‘mat’. I have included an orange arrow pointing to the ‘mat’ to help make this clearer.

Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for Early Years children, pupils in Year 1 who are just learning these sounds for the first time or who need some practise/reinforcement of these sounds. This resource is also ideal for learners with additional learning needs. How to use it? An adult cuts along the dotted lines and places the set of x6 word cards on a table top. Learners look at the image on the left, then sound it out and write this word on the lines (on the right). A visual answer sheet is included which learners can use themselves to encourage autonomy. Resource Details… This ‘Phase 2’ phonics practise activity set has been designed practise sounding out and writing simple words using only sounds in Phase 2.

In addition, the ‘a’ is ‘red’ as some may pronounce this sound as ‘u’, learners may need help with this) c - cat k - kit (e.g. football/PE kit) Yellow Set 3 Includes words which all contain the sounds s, a, t, p, i, n, m, d, g, o, c, k, ck, e, b, r, u, h ck, e, b, r, u, h ck - duck (first ‘end’ sound here so may catch out some learners) e - egg (double ‘gg’ may be an issue though of course the ‘g’ letters together only have one ‘g’ sound) u - up (escalator - arrow indicates this) r - rat (not to be confused with ‘mouse’ !) h - hen (not to be confused with ‘chicken’ !) b - bag Green Set 4 Includes words which contain all the sounds in Phase 2. f - frog ff - daffodil (‘middle’ sound may catch out some learners) Learners will need to know this particular flower or may just associate this image with ‘flower’ (for ‘f’. In addition the ‘o’ is ‘red’ as some may pronounce this sound as ‘u’ or ‘a’) l - lemon (the ‘o’ is ‘red’ as some may pronounce this sound as ‘u’) ll - bell (‘end’ sound may catch out some learners) ss - grass (‘end’ sound may catch out some learners) 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 x25 pdf pages, portrait orientation in colour featuring TWO different resources which can be used together. The first resource is a set of x5 OR x10 ‘sound/picture and WORD’ puzzles which are to be cut up and matched. The second resource is a matching set of activity sheets which can be completed on their own or AFTER the ‘sound/picture and WORD puzzles’ have been completed. There is a set of resources for ‘s’, ‘a’, ‘t’, ‘p’, ‘i’ AND ‘n’. The words to sound out only use letters found in Phases 2 and 3 - perfect to practise and reinforce Phase 2/3 sound knowledge in both reading and writing. 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 resource has been designed to practise sounding out words using letters/sounds within Phases 2 and 3 - sounding out to spell, read and write them. Resource Details Resource 1 The tick in each image box on pages 1 and 2 (top right) indicates that these images are words which can be sounded out. The layout of every letter/sound/word puzzle in this set is in the same format, making this a predictable and structured activity, ideal to keep learners engaged and independent. Resource 2 Pages 1 and 2 are the SAME activity sheet but at TWO levels - with MORE support (page 1) and LESS support (page 2). Both activity sheets are for practising sounding out and writing words. Page 3 clearly shows the ‘answers’. How to use it? Resource 1. An adult prints these two pages out (ideally onto card) and cuts along the dotted lines, including to separate the ‘letters/images/words’. Instructions are also included (left side). The set (of cut up letters, images and words) can then be placed on a table top for learners to match - the correct initial letter with the image AND word - as a ‘three part’ mini jigsaw puzzle. Each (correct) letter and word only fits the corresponding image. Resource 2. Learners are to sound out and write the words for the images featured on the sheet, one image per box. Page 1 is easier to complete (than page 2) as lines (to write on) show how many sounds are in each word. Any ‘red’ lines to write on indicate a ‘tricky’ sound which 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 clearly shows the answers. Red letters identify a tricky/irregular spelling.

What’s included? This download includes four A4, portrait pdf sheets to practise reading and writing to correct x8 simple sentences. Every sentence has x3 mistakes to correct. The last two pages are the answer pages - the same sentences with every mistake made clear. 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 Pages 1 and 2 both include x4 sentences, each in a separate box, illustrated with a simple image on the right. Both pages include the same instructions at the top - making it clear to learners that there are x3 mistakes in each sentence and what these mistakes might be. Mistakes may be spellings, capital letters, finger spaces and full stops. There is a clear space for learners to write their name at the base of both pages. The words included and spelling errors make the level of this activity aimed at learners who are learning Phase 5 phonics. Sentences include words containing Phase 5 sounds (ea, ay, a-e, aw, ph) as well as a knowledge of common high frequency words including she, you, his, are, and, said, see, their, not, with, at, the, to, do, that, can, in, loved, dad. 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.

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? 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. 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) 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 x4 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 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 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. 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. 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 (other sets are coming!) 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.

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.

New online service coming soon with FREE downloads (including this resource) available!

What’s included? This download includes one A4, landscape pdf sheet to practise ‘ordering the alphabet’ and matching up upper and lowercase alphabet letters using rainbow coloured circle shaped ‘beads’. Dotted guide line showing where to cut and punch a hole are included. The hole to punch is 5mm in size though a smaller hole punch could be used (to increase the fine motor skills challenge!) 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 The layout includes x6 rows and x9 columns of circular shaped beads each with an upper/lowercase letter. Beads are arranged in rainbow order to help guide and motivate learners in finding the next number (and colour) in the pattern. This is an ideal activity to keep learners busy and independent. I have included two versions of the letter ‘k’ as some learners may be more used to the look of one style than the other. 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 new resource 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!

What’s included? This download includes four A4, portrait pdf sheets to make x4 phonics fans featuring all sounds in Phase 2. Red Set 1 (page 1) Includes sounds s a t p i n Orange Set 2 (page 2) Includes sounds m d g o c k Yellow Set 3 (page 3) Includes sounds ck e b r u h Green Set 4 (page 4) Includes sounds f ff l ll ss How to use this resource As all letter sounds for Phase 2 are included here all letters can be combined onto one ring as one set. I have included ‘covers’ for each individual set incase the preference is to split the sets. A ‘cover’ for ALL sounds is included on page 4. Phonics fans can be used in a variety of situations including on-the-carpet questioning with the whole class/smaller groups where pupils can show their answers instead of speaking. Learners can use these phonics fans as a personal reference resource to cross-check the correct grapheme or orientation of individual letters if unsure when writing. Phonics fans can also be used for a variety of games and to involve learners during sound rhymes and songs. These fans are a great size to fit into a pocket or clip onto a lanyard to be accessed both inside the classroom and outdoors. 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. Suggestion I recently purchased some brightly coloured plastic keyrings which can be easily opened by unclipping the plastic. These could be ideal should you wish learners to access the contents of the ring (e.g. to order the sounds) and come in a variety of colours. Alternatively I have found standard metal keyrings also work well as a more permanent ‘holder’ of the contents threaded onto the keyring. I recommend that each letter is laminated before punching a hole and threading onto a keyring - this is included in the instructions on the pdf. Important message… ANY issues with these phonics fans please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes AND I am happy to create a new resource if you have an idea just let me know - I’d really love to hear from you!

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.
