Blending Activities
Identifying Sounds in Words Flips can help children with: - blending - segmenting - specific sounds - beginning, middle and end sounds
What we should be doing after group 1? Play games to encourage the skill of blending. Use the actions to create words. Point to sound symbols for children to blend together. Read simple words of two, three or four sounds.
What we should be doing after group 1? Segmenting: show how these sounds are represented with symbols to create that word in print. Send home Sounding Out Word Boxes (Adapted as Sounding Out Folders). Send home first list of Tricky Words.
Jolly Phonics -A Yearly Plan Term 1 Term 2 Term 3 Term 4 Jolly Phonics • Revise 42 sounds •42 Sounds • Explore alternative •Blending •Segmenting digraphs – the advanced •Tricky Words code •Reading and Writing •Explore vowels – the vowel box •Initial consonant blends; •Advanced Phonemic Awareness •Reading and Writing
Introducing Digraphs Two or more letters making one sound. Learning Sounds
Alternative Vowel Sounds Introduced as: Alternatives later taught: • ai (rain) ay (day) a-e (cake) • ee (feet) ea (sea) • oa (boat) ow (snow) o-e (bone)
Teaching Digraphs
Teaching Digraphs • Word Bank Place the digraph spellings in a different colour. Other not so common spellings are placed in a ‘tricky column’.
Advanced Sound Awareness • Vowel Box Activity.
Advanced Sound Awareness Chopping Game Reducing a word – one phoneme at a time blend, lend, end, nd, d crust, rust, ust, st, t trace, race, ace, s forgive, orgive, give, iv, v
Advanced Sound Awareness Playing around with sounds. Word Families/Rhyming words
Beginning to Read and Write • Mystery Reading Sentences • Guided Writing Sentences After the first six sounds s a t i p n and the first group of tricky words you can begin to guide the children through the reading and writing process.
Using The Jolly Readers in your Classroom • The text in each reader should NOT be memorised. • When children memorise text they regularly fail to attend to the letters and the sounds within a word. • It is important not to introduce the Readers until the 42 sounds, blending and the first list of tricky words have been taught.

Use the information which the children know to create simple texts. • Letter sounds • Blending •Tricky words
Suitable Text • Group 1 sounds / several tricky words Nat Nat is an ant. Nat sat in the tin. A pin is in the tin. The pin is in Nat.
Suitable Text • Group 3 and several tricky words The Black Rat I’m a rat. I’m a black rat. I can spin on a mat. I can flip on a mat. I’m a big, black rat.
Reading Groups • Reading is effective if your class can be organised into small groups. • Menu Board Activities are planned so that one group can work with the teacher (Guided Reading) while the others are working independently. Mon Tue Wed Thur Group 1 Guided Reading Sentence Bingo- Peer Reading T Construct Tricky Words Mickey Mouse Bingo- Peer Reading Guided Reading Sentence Tricky Words Group2 T Construct Tweety Birds Group 3 Bingo- Peer Reading Guided Reading Sentence Bugs Bunny Tricky Words T Construct
Menu Board Activities Activities are adapted according to the level of the children. Examples of Activities • Magnetic Letters. • Sentence Construction – children paste words to form a sentence. These can be based on the readers the children have read earlier. • Bingo (tricky words, phonetic words based on digraphs/alternative spellings). • Sentence and picture matching. • Find-a- Word: based on tricky words and regular phonetic words. • Dictionary work: using words from the readers. • Cloze passages: choose the correct word to • complete each sentence.
Reading Menu Board Today is Tuesday Mickey Mouse Tweety Birds Reading with Magnetic Miss DiMauro letters to practise segmenting Bugs Bunny
Independent Writing • Writing should begin as early as possible. Encourage independent writing as early as you can in term one. Don’t over rely on teacher scribing. Encourage the use of sounds and tricky words when modelling the writing process. Each child has a sound mat of the 42 sounds and a tricky word mat to refer to when writing.
Magic Writing….

First Year Timetable First part of year Second part of year Last part of year 1 Teach 42 sounds Introduce letter names Revise alternative spellings Teach alternative spellings Teach how to form Teach handwriting rules, capital 2 letters correctly letters, and give writing Give handwriting practice practice 3 Teach how to blend simple Introduce Jolly Readers Continue with Jolly Readers regular words and blending practice Blending practice with alternative spellings 4 Teach how to write words by Dictation – words and Independent writing listening for sounds Continue dictation practice sentences Independent writing 5 Teach how to read and spell Reading and spelling of First 60 tricky words taught a few tricky words more tricky words
Assessment • Recognition of 42 sounds. • Reading regular words (blending) • Writing regular words (segmenting) • Reading and writing irregular words. • Reading books fluently with comprehension. • Writing independently.

Assessment • Phonemic awareness with the emphasis on sounds in sequence for blending and segmenting. • Phonemic awareness of auditory discrimination of sounds anywhere in a word not just initial sounds.
Assessment Checklist Correct Incorrect Incorrect response c-u-p s-a-t m-u-d r-ai-n d-i-sh s-u-n Words are orally segmented by teacher. Child blends the sounds to say whole word.
Assessment • Nonsense words: the purpose of using such words is to determine the type of reading strategy a child is using. Is blending a strategy being used? Correct Incorrect Incorrect Response cog fap pan blet black Activities need to involve simple blending tasks – ‘s-u-n’ choose correct picture; ‘f-i-sh’ choose correct picture; - start blending loudly and then softly as you get to end of word;
How could Pre- school/Child Care benefit from the Jolly Phonics Program?
Jolly Phonics in Pre-School • Learning all the 42 sounds through a variety of multi-sensory methods. - Jolly Songs - Jolly Stories - Tactile activities • Exploring each sound over a 12 month period focusing on one sound each week.
Jolly Phonics in Pre-School • Becoming tuned into the sounds that occur in simple words. • Becoming skilled with the aural blending and aural segmenting of simple words.
Jolly Phonics Scope and Sequence 3 year olds 4 year olds 5 year olds • One sound per week • 42 sounds covered at • 42 sounds covered at is explored using a pace of 2-3 sounds a pace of 3-5 sounds actions; Jolly Stories; per week (Big Books); per week (Interactive Jolly Songs; Finger Software); Phonics Books •Aural blending and aural segmenting; •Aural blending and (NB digraphs should not segmenting using be omitted) •Blending and actions; segmenting using • Focus: initial sounds; symbols; •Blending and segmenting using • Pencil manipulation; •Listening for sounds symbols; within words; •Manipulating sounds in •Correct letter words; vowel box formation; •Correct letter •Introduce several formation; tricky words •Introduce all tricky words; •Reading and writing simple sentences;
