About this resource
The movable onsets let pupils change the beginning while keeping -at fixed. After building and reading words, they copy their results onto the second page and try to generate additional examples. This links oral blending with written recording rather than leaving the task at card matching.
Curriculum reference — England: Blending onsets with a rime directly supports early regular-word decoding. Selected skills only; reference stage is not an overall reading age, complete curriculum coverage, or an automatic recommendation for every learner.
