Teach Your Monster: Free Phonics, Reading and Mathematics Games. Reading Games KS1. Half Pint Kids Decodable Books. If you want hard copies of the books for your students and your school cannot afford to buy them, many teachers have written grants to obtain them, asked their PTO for help or used websites such as Donors Choose who buy materials for classrooms. It is unlawful to copy the books! Please know that these digital books show up best on computers or iPad and tablets rather than phones. In addition, you will see that I have listed the skills that children need to learn, BEFORE reading each set of books.

Each book builds upon the skills from previous books so the books should be presented in sequence. An explicit, systematic, sequential and cumulative approach to teaching reading is the Science of Reading! I have also included links to the FREE Teaching Guides, Activity Pages and Literacy Centers. You have permission to download and print these supplemental resources but you do not have permission to change the content and/or resell them. Thank you and happy reading! LuAnn Santillo, Author.

Fun Fonix: Phonics Worksheets, Workbooks, Games. 56 Free Phonics Worksheets and Phonemic Awareness Activities. Free Phonics Worksheets. Online Phonics games. Phonics games will help your child to practise sounding out words, which will help them to read. Initially, children will learn basic letter sounds, such as "c-a-t" for "cat".

Later they will move on to sounds such as "th", "sh" and "ch", then "oo", "oa" and so on. Once they recognise a few basic letter sounds, they will be able to work out what a written word says for themselves, a skill which they will be very proud to show off! Follow the links below to the free phonics games. Your child will have lots of fun while developing their phonic knowledge and skills. Click for free printable phonics resources to support the DfES Letters and Sounds scheme.

Another skill which phonics games can help with is being able to recognise the sounds that a spoken word is made up of, which will help them when it comes to writing and spelling.
