Raising standards in KS1 and Special Needs: helping every child to succeed. I have taught systematic phonics to all ages and abilities for over 30 years. My teaching degree was in Environmental Studies and I hate to see science reduced to box-ticking when there is so much to discover about the wonderful world we live in. So, I produce Phonic resources that meet the real needs of children and teachers, along with science resources to engage children in learning about the natural world.

sh/ch Phonic game

sh/ch Phonic game

(0)
This game will help children to hear the sounds ‘sh’ and ‘ch’ in words. The child is not expected to read the words, just to listen for the sounds. Some children, especially those with a speech delay, have difficulty differentiating between ‘sh’ and ‘ch’. This game will help to focus the pupil’s attention on the difference between them. Games can be very effective when helping such children to progress to the next step, taking the fear of failing away and making it alright to make mistakes. They are wonderful for already de-motivated learners.

Initial Consonant Blends: SW

Initial Consonant Blends: SW

(0)
This entertaining SW Find and Color worksheet for initial blends can help prepare children for more advanced blending work involving four phonemes, is a great way to introduce children orally to initial consonant blends and help them develop the necessary phonemic awareness. The pack contains one sheet for the SW initial blend. It is part of a pack of 20 such worksheets that can be purchased for a small price here to save you the time and effort of downloading 20 individual worksheets. On each worksheet, students have to blend the two letters and then search for objects that begin with that blended consonant. After then, only these objects should be colored; the others should remain uncolored. Once they are given instructions, children can readily work on the sheets without assistance; nevertheless, for the most benefit, it is strongly advised that an adult work with special needs children. It is necessary to introduce the idea of early blends in detail. Upon working with kids, particularly those who have special needs, my first preference is to teach them how to blend two consonant letters. Next, I focus on enhancing the childrens’ phonemic awareness, which is the capacity to distinguish each blend of consonants at the beginning of a word. Some students find this challenging, and it requires a lot of practice. The purpose of these worksheets is to help students hear the blend at the beginning of a word by first encouraging them to blend the two consonant letters. Encourage the kids to blend the letters in each initial blend by practicing as often as you can. Modeling, in my opinion, is essential.

Highly Structured Phonic Programme for Intervention

Highly Structured Phonic Programme for Intervention

4 Resources
A series of highly structured phonics worksheets for special needs, currently covering the sounds: CK, OO, EE, AR and OR, A-E, I-E for any pupils of any age who need a slower pace and more in-depth study of a digraph, with each task broken into tiny manageable steps. Each pack contains 12 worksheets, intended to be worked through as a workbook but which can be used discretely. These sheets are intended to be used in a multisensory capacity so needed by special needs children, in which the child sees the sound/word, feels the sound with the mouth parts, and then writes it. See it! Sound-it-out! Write it! is my powerful 3-step process. My ‘sound-it-out’ boxes help to visually group wounds in words so guiding the pupils attention to the sounds to help them to sound out effectively. These structured worksheets take the pupil through the following stages: Hear the new sound in familiar words (to familiarise the child with the sound) Write the new sound (writing adds a multisensory dimension so needed by these pupils) Track the new sound in words (throughout) Write the new sounds Read words with the new sound Read longer passages Each pack includes a front cover to make a workbook and a page on which to write the given dictation passage on completion of the exercises. These packs were written originally for a ten-year-old pupil of mine who has severe processing difficulties. They will help those suspected of being, or diagnosed with, Dyslexia as well as with any other special need. This bundle is rapidly being added to.
