Guest Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Hi, I have my first reception class in sept and wondered if there were any good websites/books/documents out there that would help me better understand the teaching of letters and sounds in early years (apart from letters and sounds book of course), Thanks Louise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cait Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Is there anything here http://www.letters-and-sounds.com/phase-1.html of any use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 we use education city for the interactive phonics games they are fab but you have to pay a subscription each year. The letters and sounds document is really all you need, resources to go with each phase can be found on www.twinkl.com deb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LornaW Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 This series of books are great and the children love the songs. http://www.amazon.co...sl_38cfj03wn9_b Also these documents are worth looking at we gave them out in Kent when we did the L&S training so you may find them useful.

amym Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Hi the website www.letters-and-sounds.co.uk is great for games.

KST Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 www.phonicsplay.co.uk has some great interactive games taken from letters and sounds. There are a few free resources such as buried treasure availbale but it costs a small amount (about £20 maybe) for full access and its worth every penny! x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
