How to teach … phonics | Teacher Network
From the much maligned key stage 1 screening test which asks children to sound out words such as "drall", "halp" and "snope", to the current embrace of the synthetic phonics model in UK schools, how to teach reading and writing is a subject of hot debate. All schools will have their own favourite phonics programme. But whether you are Floppy fans or find joy in Jolly or elsewhere, the Guardian Teacher Network has some excellent resources to complement phonics work in school and at home and help your pupils to learn the most important lessons of their lives. An inspiring start is the Teach your monster to read game to practice the first steps of reading. Children can get to grips with graphemes in this ready-made "ir, ue, aw, ue, wh, ph" PowerPoint with sounds and action buttons, and here is the "ay, ou, ie, ea, oy" version. Thanks to Alan Davies from Thrass for sharing these English phonics guide and check guidance notes for teachers. • This article was amended on 5 April 2013.
