Lesson 1
• What is phonics?
• Why phonics is important?
• When is phonics usually taught?
What is phonics ?
• Phonics is a system of relationships
between letters and sounds in a
language.
• When you learn that the letter B has
the sound of /b/ and that "tion" sounds
like /shun/, you are learning phonics.
Why is phonics important?
• Learning phonics will help you to learn
to read and spell. Written language can
be compared to a code, so knowing the
sounds of letters and letter
combinations will help you to decode
words as you read.
• Knowing phonics will also help you
know which letters to use as you write
words.
Why is phonics important?
The 'simple view of reading'
The Rose Report makes a number of
recommendations for the teaching of early reading.
It makes clear that there are two dimensions to
reading – ‘word recognition’ and ‘language
comprehension’.
In 2006 Sir Jim Rose completed his independent review
of the teaching of early reading.
The independent review report, provided clear
recommendations on what constitutes 'high quality
phonics work'.
Why is phonics important?
High-quality phonics teaching secures the
crucial skills of word recognition that, once
mastered, enable you to read fluently and
automatically. Once you are a fluent
reader, you are able to concentrate on the
meaning of the text.
Why is phonics important?
The ‘simple view of reading’ shows that both
dimensions are necessary to achieve fluent
reading. However, the balance between word
recognition and language comprehension shifts
as children acquire secure and automatic
decoding skills and progress from ‘learning to
read’ to ‘reading to learn’ for purpose and
pleasure. The ultimate goal of learning to read
is comprehension.
Stages of learning phonics
• short and long vowels, consonant
digraphs, vowels combination, decoding,
making words.
• the letters and sounds.
• soft and hard sounds and short and long
sounds, all the sounds of letters and
letter combinations.
• practice reading and spelling words
containing those letters and patterns.
All children are different
• Some people need very little phonics
instruction, while others still benefit
from phonics instruction later on in
learning.
• People vary in the amount of phonics
instruction they need and when they need it.
Key concept and skills
Concept 1• Sounds (phonemes) are represented
by letters (graphemes: shapes of the
letters)
• English is an alphabetic language –
unlike Chinese, for example, where
whole words are represented by
characters.
Key concept and skills
Concept 2
• A phoneme can be represented by
one letter (grapheme) or by a group of
2 or more letters. (e.g. ‘sh’, ‘igh’,
‘eigh’)
• There are 26 alphabetical letters with
44 sounds

Letters and Sounds
Methods
1. Sound out each letter, instead of
saying the name of the letter, do not
add ‘uh’ at the end of the sound
2. Match the sounds with pictures
3. Sing ABC and phonics songs
4. Play phonics games
5. Practice, practice, practice

Class Game
Alphabetical Order
2 teams use a plastic film stick on
the board.
Spray some shaving cream.
Each member needs to take a turn
and write the alphabet in order.
Class Game
Circle time
Sit in a circle and name the
alphabet , when it is a vowel, they
need to stand up.
Start from who made a mistake.
When letter sequence is mastered,
let’s try with the sounds.
Class Game
Odd out the cards
2 teams
Each parent will need to name the
different sound in each card.
