This pack features a CVC word list for Letters and Sounds Phase 2, as well as two files of corresponding word cards - one set with sound buttons (dots and dashes) underneath letters, and one set without.
The words are organised into Letters and Sounds sets 1-5:
Set 1 (s a t p)
Set 2 (i n m d)
Set 3 (g o c k)
Set 4 (ck e u r)
Set 5 (h b f ff l ll ss)
A selection of 20 different photograph cards and matching captions, featuring CVC words from Phase 2 (Letters and Sounds).
We have found these really useful for a range of phonic activities - you can separate the captions from the photos and ask children to match them together. We also use them in phonics lessons, on displays, or have them available in the reading corner for children to access independently.
These Powerpoint files contain videos for each letter in the alphabet, modelling how to form those letters correctly.
You will receive two Powerpoint files - one where each letter is modelled by a real hand, handwriting, and the other where the letter formation is animated.
We have found these videos incredibly useful within both Phonics and Handwriting sessions, as they allow students to view a continuous loop of correct letter formation when practising themselves.
You may either use the Powerpoints as standalone sessions - viewed in Slideshow mode, the first slide allows you to click on which letter you would like to practise, and you are then taken to the slide for that letter where the video is looped for pupils to copy.
Alternatively, if teaching a specific letter in a Phonics session, you could add the video file to your own Powerpoint and play the formation as and when is appropriate for your class.
Please note that both Powerpoints contain two versions for the letters ‘k’ and ‘f’ - looped and unlooped/straight and curved. Simply move forward to the next slide to use the one relevant to your setting.
