Preface Phonics is leading, teaching, and showing learners how to make sounds. In the process of doing this, learners should be able to easily spill out the sounds. The majority of students who have learned phonics are capable of reading individual words within phonics workbooks, however when faced with the same words in storybooks, fail to pronounce them correctly. The reason being is that they have not learned to pronounce these words within the context of a sentence. It is very important for the learner to process words alone, using storybooks or sight words books, so that they will be able to read more than they are expected to read. They are learning phonics in order to read books, however once they have completed the phonics books, learners are only capable of reading 60-70% of English. For this reason, it is necessary for learners to practice reading using fingers, and spilling out the sounds. The Easy Phonics series has been designed to eliminate the previous pitfalls of learning phonics. Each unit ultimately leads to a short story where the learner can see the words they have been studying, presented within the context of a story. This is an essential part of the unit, because it allows the learner to practice reading the new vocabulary in context, so it should not be missed when completing each unit.

How to use Easy Phonics 1 The Easy Phonics series of workbooks provides an array of activities throughout, aimed at keeping early learners captivated and enthused towards learning. As the young learner progresses through the books, they will face different activities within each unit. These activities change in correlation with the learning objective. Alphabet - units 1~6 UNIT 1 Aa Bb Cc Dd Trace the capital and small letters Trace the capital and small letters. The initial activity introduces early learners to capital and small letters.

sound and pronunciation of that letter, too. The chant element of this activity makes learning more fun and directs it away from being a standard listen and repeat exercise. Track 3 Listen and circle the beginning sound for each picture Listen and circle the beginning sound for each picture. In this challenge, the learner will work from memory to recognize the 1. 2. word which relates to the picture shown, and to circle the beginning sound for that word.

The following five units introduce different challenges and activities for the learner, in conjunction with a different learning objective. Units 7-11 introduce the learner to short vowel sounds.

The listening exercise comprises Listen and repeat the sound of each letter and word. of repeating the letters and words of twelve pictures which will feature Then write the word next to the picture. throughout the unit.
