Sound Phonics prepares children for full fluency in reading writing & spelling by providing intensive practice in phonics. A comprehensive phonics resource it is fully compatible with ' Letters & Sounds' & any other incremental phonics programme. Its graded activities best completed with an adult reinforce early literacy skills through listening & speaking & support a multi-sensory approach. In Sound Phonics Phase Five the child explores different pronunciations of the same grapheme & different spellings of the same phoneme & key spelling patterns are identified & practised. By Phase Five children are more skilled at recognising graphemes made up of more than one letter so the use of 'sound buttons' is much reduced. Instead the emphasis is on 'sounding out' words without them. The use of phoneme frames is also phased out as children practise spelling through counting phonemes recognising spelling patterns or applying spelling rules. Sound Phonics Phase Five Book 1 is the sixth book in the series & a one-per-child activity book.
