These resources are available in my shop. Then the idea was for the children in my class to access these independently, either by using pegs to match the answers or other ways to work out the answer like using bottle tops with letters wrote on them. I made a lot of resources for traditional tales that can be printed off and laminated. With a picture to help young children visualise what they are reading, they have a purpose to reading it too and not just going through the motions. Hey Duggee - Learn to recognise shapes and colours with Duggee and. They read it and then they have to match it to the correct picture out of the three available. Alphablocks - Phonics fun with the Alphablocks, help your child learn all about phonics and letter sounds in this fun game. This resource is aimed at beginner readers and to try and put some fun into reading. They have many, many other skills they have to master before they can get there. When first learning they do not possess the ability to imagine what the written word is telling us. Reading is a ‘silent’ process for many children. They can then read it and match it to the pictures. The children can then move these initial sounds infront of the picture of the middle and end sounds to make a word.

Once laminated, velcro needs adding to the dots so the Alphablocks can be stuck down. It is important to include pictures with each word too so they can link words to real life objects.

It is also good for children to hear different intial sounds. This resource was made using word families because that will help hearing the different sounds and therefore help with initial reading of CVC words.

Children love Alphablocks and they are an amazing program that really does help little ones understand phonics and helps them on their initial journey on how to read.
