About the lessons:

  • Pupils study a set of around ten words per week all with a common sound.

  • There is an extension list of words for reading to help reading move faster than spelling. This list is optional as it contains words from Level 2, which can also be studied for reading and/ or spelling as needed by the child.

  • The lessons are simple following a set format and take one week each to give sufficient practice.

  • Weekly dictations help the child to apply new knowledge while revising previously taught sounds.

Word lists

Accompanying word lists are provided. These can be used in multiple ways:

  • Pinned up to allow daily revision of the current sound being taught

  • Put in a folder for review work

  • To have on hand to remind a pupil of a sound family and the words within it
