A powerpoint containing cvc cvcc and ccvc words using phase 2 set 1 sounds (SATPIN). I have shown the word with sound buttons then blended it in the direction of reading (left to right) to show the letters blending together. I found it helpful for my class when beginning to blend.

Colour code colouring sheets for s a t p i n phonemes Recognition / colours / fine motor

EYFS continuous provision or phonics support resource. Best used when laminated. Place word or sound cards on the ‘Read It’ section. Use plastic / magnetic letters to build the word in the ‘Build It’ section. Children use whiteboard pens to practise writing the word in the ‘Write It’ section.

A selection of compound word cards with pictures. Some with compound word picture, some left for children to write without the final picture clue. Space for children to write the word. I laminate these cards for the children to write on with whiteboard pens.

Phase 3 trigraphs air, ure and ear real or alien cards with sound buttons for playing buried treasure. I laminated these cards and either use them in continuous provision independent activities or I have used them outdoors in a buried treasure game where the children pick a card out of a basket and run to the bin or the treasure chest to put the cards in - they can do it as a race or maybe to a timer. I added check boxes so whiteboard pens could be used for children to read and check independently (if laminated). They could also be used as real / alien flash cards.

Phase 2 missing sound card strips - I laminate the missing sounds strips so the children can use white board pens or they can just be printed as sheets. The children love filling these in. Captions using phase 2 sounds. I use the caption sheets with the sound prompts on the top so children don’t have to find sound mats but these could be cut off.

A powerpoint to help blending. I have created slides with cvc, cvcc and ccvc words using phase 2 set 2 sounds (SATPINMD). Each word has one slide with sound buttons and a picture and a second animated slide blending the sounds in the direction they are said (left to right). I found these helpful when teaching my class to blend.

Powerpoint for practising segmenting. Pictures with animatied transitions showing 3 boxes then the sounds. Show the picture, ask the children to say the word. Show the 3 boxes and ask them if they can identify the sounds. Show the sounds one at a time. Can be used for blending too.
