Phonic Worksheets for Early Years/Intervention - Growing Bundle
Special Resources, ELA, Special Education Needs (SEN), Language Development, Pre-Reading, Phonics, Reading, Spelling, Kindergarten, Preschool, Grade 1, 2, Teacher Tools, Lesson Plans, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets, Activities, Games
This is a pack of Bumper Pack of seven (to date) books of phonic worksheets for the digraphs: EE, AR, OR, A-E, I-E, O-E and U-E specially designed for the very young child, or the older child requiring reading/spelling intervention, including those with dyslexia or who may be suspected of being dyslexic. These sheets are LETRS and UK GOV requirements aligned. These worksheets also align with the most popular phonic programmes, including RWI and Letters and Sounds. What is included? 7 PDF's of 12 worksheets each covering the sounds: EE, OR, AR and A-E, I-E, O-E and U-E, all following my special method devised as I privately tutor children of all ages with profound special needs. 1 PDF of 40 worksheets teaching the L-Blends: bl, cl, fl, gl, pl, sl. 2 PDF games for AR and A-E in full colour and black and white to send home for extra practice! Other packs have one-sheet, no-prep games. Who are these worksheets for? I have written them for young pupils who may be a little slower at processing information. This includes children who may be DYSLEXIC or have ANY other kind of processing disorder. Such children may be at risk of failure or even have failed with other methods of teaching phonics. Such pupils need activities that: Are highly structured - one tiny step at a time building on the one before using only a limited number of words to start with and only using words that the child has already learnt to sound out, with no nasty surprises. Have only a little on each page as these pupils tire easily. Have a simple layout to help them focus on reading and writing without distractions What makes these worksheets special? I have a powerful three-step process which I use with my special needs pupils, which is worked out over the course of the 12 worksheets: 1. See it! where we focus on becoming aware of the new sound in words. This involves first hearing the new sound in words and then seeing it in words (tracking). 2. Sound-it-out! Having learnt to see the new sound in words, we learn to sound out these words to read and write them. We begin by using sound-it-out boxes for reading and spelling which help the child to segment the word prior to blending the sounds together. Once the child can read and write individual words, we work on fluency by building familiarity with the common words in the new sound family. Once the child can sound the words out to read and spell confidently, we move on to recognising them/using them in longer reading and dictation passages, as soon as the child is able. I provide 2 reading passages with comprehension exercises and one dictation passage, with a page in the workbook dedicated to it, with room for a picture, which again cements understanding. 3. Write it! Incorporated into the above two steps, we constantly write the new sound. This adds a multi-sensory dimension to our work - we see with our eyes, we sound it with our mouth parts and voice, and then we move by writing. All three steps work together to help the child feel in control of his/her learning and to become a successful, confident learner. We finish each sound with a dictation which culminates our work before we remove on to the next sound. I try to give this a week after we finish the book, to act as revision. The dictation: Read this passage to your pupil, who should write it. Have the child read his/her work and check for errors. Make sure the writing is completely accurate before saying the child has finished, including full stops and capital letters correctly used. Flashcards are included in most books. Phonic Games are also included for AR, A-E and O-E stand as one-sheet, no prep games in I-E, O-E and U-E.

AR Phonic Game
ELA, Language Development, Phonics, Reading, Kindergarten, Preschool, Grade 1, Activities, Games
This is a phonic game to help children, especially those with special needs, to read words with the digraph 'ar'. Who can use this ar game ? Any who need to use the digraph ar! But it is especially for those with special needs: games can take the pressure out of learning to read, especially for those who have become despondent or are reluctant for any reason. They are fun and take the child's mind off of the tedium, and winning is not dependent on their ability to read - it is the 'way the game goes'. What can it be used for? Why not send it home for homework? It can be used as a discrete form of assessment: is the pupil using knowledge of letter sounds - or GUESSING which will lead to failure? What is included in the pack? Full instructions are given. The game comes in both black and white and colour versions. Children can be encouraged to colour the black-and-white version and this will help the words in the 'ar' family to be established firmly in the child's mind. There are 3 boards with matching picture/word cards in both black and white and colour. Aim of the game : To help children to be able to sound out, or recognise, words with ‘ar’ in them, quickly. How to prepare the game : Choose either black and white or coloured. The children can colour the black and white boards which will help to fix the words together in their minds as being in the same family. The game boards come in pairs: For each pair choose one to be a board and cut the other up into individual picture/word cards. If only two people are playing then they can choose which sets of pictures and cards they use. How to play: This is a game for two or three players. The teacher should watch if two children are playing together. Each player takes a game board. The matching letter/picture cards are scattered on the table face down. Players take it in turns to choose a card from the table. The child looks to see if s/he has the matching word or picture on his/her board. If so, the card is placed in position on the board. If not, it is returned to the pool on the table. The winner is the first person to complete his/her board. Teaching tips: Support children to sound words out/blend them as needed. Help children to see and use the ‘ar’ sound to read the words.

Give A Dog A Word Bone Game
ELA, Language Development, Phonics, Kindergarten, Preschool, Grade 1, Activities, Games
Read the word on the bone. If you get it right feed it to the dog. Woof! Woof! A fun game to reinforce reading. Introducing you to our brand new ‘Mission Spelling Zero’ scheme. Help your child/ren to take their first steps in reading, writing and spelling, with this exciting structured scheme. How to prepare Cut out the dog‘s head, body and tail. Glue the head and body together and attach to a box (shoebox). Stick the tail to the other end of the box, so it can be seen just above the box. How to play: Muddle up and divide the bones equally between the number of children playing. Each child takes a turn to read a word from their pile. If they read the word correctly, everyone shouts “WOOF! WOOF! WOOF!” and the child slots it through the dogs mouth. However, if they read the word incorrectly, everyone shouts “Grrrr....” and the word bone has to go to the bottom of the child’s pile. The first child to feed all their bones to the dog is the winner.
