Phonics

Hi All,

Letter Box has developed a Phonic and Comprehension slide show that is available on:
www.letterboxlearn2read.com.au
This slide show is useful for Year One and Prep children.It starts with the easiest sounds firstly.

A navigation bar is attached so that you can direct any student to a letter or sound that they don't know. The slide show teaches picture interpretation which is the beginnings of early comprehension and phonics.

Our children who are in Learning Support just love to hear a story a day. They love the colourful and humorous pictures as well.

Another product that I am using with great success, is the Multi-Lit Program. This Program starts at a very basic level of blending sounds into words. I begin this program even before the children know all of their sounds. They soon become competent at sounding three letter words.

Phonics is so important but so is syntax and semantics. They all connect.
Have a great week teaching,
Ann
