Free Letters and Sounds
Resources
Whether you are a parent or teacher, you can
use these free resources to help support the the DfES
Letters and Sounds phonics programe. If you're new to
Letters and Sounds and want to find out what it's all
about, visit What is Letters and
Sounds to find out more.
I aim to provide lots of free resources for
parents and teachers who are following the Letters and Sounds
programme. I've made a special effort to create themes which
will engage all children. Looking around I have found resources
on other sites which have lots of appeal for girls (flowers,
butterflies etc.), but not so much aimed at boys'
interests.
Because of this I have chosen as my first
themes colourful trucks and robots, which I hope will appeal to
boys and girls. I know I struggled to get one little boy
interested in reading until I came up with the idea of sticking
words onto cars, lorries and trains...pretty soon he was
hooked!
In addition to printable letter and word cards,
I will also be adding printable games, plus teaching ideas,
activities and links to other useful sites. Soon I hope to add
interactive whiteboard activities too.
For full details the Letters and Sounds phonics
teaching programme, visit the Standards Site's Letters and Sounds section. You can
download or order a hard copy of the guidance for each
phase. There are also some useful videos on using Letters
and Sounds in the classroom, as well as a phoneme
pronunciation guide.
