This comprehensive teacher manual covers teaching at each phase and provides word lists and activities according to the progression.
Letters and Sounds is a synthetic phonics program that systematically introduces different letter sounds following a week by week progression. There are 6 phases of teaching, covering: phonemic awareness, letter sounds, phonics, blends, vowel sounds and spelling rules.
Phase 1 : Phonemic Awareness.
Phase 2 : Letter Sounds.
Phase 3 : Phonics.
Phase 4 : Blends.
Phase 5 : Vowel Sounds.
Phase 6 : Spelling.
Junior Learning’s literacy resources follow a systematic synthetic phonics-based approach.
In this method, students are first introduced to a core set of letters, and are encouraged to play around with those sounds and words before progressing to a new set of letters. This enables kids to become familiar with sounds and spellings, so that they can gradually decode words in a natural progression and pace.
The systemic phonics-based approach is also supported by the latest research in educational neuroscience, where each phase stimulates a specific part of the brain, responsible for different areas of functioning.
