  7. Letter Formation It is important not to check the end result only, but the process.

  8. Letter sounds It is important that we all use the same language – at home and at school. Also remember that letter sounds are different than letter names.

  9. Phonological Awareness • The understanding that spoken language is made up of individual and separate sounds. Every sound is called a phoneme. Sometimes a sound is represented by more than one letter and is called a grapheme.

  10. The 44 phonemes

  11. Letter Sounds Group 1

  12. A cat is on a mat. Use phonics for reading purposes. /c//a//t/ - cat

  13. A cat is on a mat. When writing it is important to use letter names – cat. Common mistakes kat, fix

  14. Phonological Awareness Activities 1. Oral Rhyming (cat rat sat) Read poetry and other rhyming books. (Humpty Dumpty) When reading a familiar rhyme, stop before a rhyming word and ask your child to say the word. 2. Syllable awareness in spoken words Clap parts of words. Start with your child’s name. 3. Phonemic awareness (an essential element) Individual sounds in spoken words is a part of phonological awareness.

  15. Next steps … • Children then begin to blend for reading. • Starting with simple VC (vowel consonant) words - at, it, is • and then to CVC (consonant vowel consonant) words - dog, cat, man

  16. Blending • Recognise and say the letter sounds in a written word, for example: s-a-t by merging or ‘blending’ them in the order in which they are written to pronounce the word ‘sat’.
