Preface This Phonics Book is part of the ClassKlap series of books for kindergarten (Nursery, LKG and UKG). The books are student-friendly, contextual and prepare learners for all the skills which are essential to make them ready for school. All the books are based on the internationally recommended pedagogy of MULTIPLE LEARNING PATHWAYS. Phonics is a method for teaching the reading and writing of the English language by developing the learners’ phonemic awareness — the ability to hear, identify and manipulate letter sounds — in order to teach the correspondence between these sounds and the spelling patterns that represent them. Learning phonics helps learners understand the relationship between letters and their sounds. Research shows that learners who are taught by the phonics method display marked improvement with respect to measure of phonemic awareness, spelling and reading as compared to learners who are taught by the traditional methods. This book introduces learners to letter names and their corresponding sounds. For example, the letter ‘a’ represents the /a/ heard at the beginning of the word ‘ant’, the letter ‘b’ represents the /b/ heard at the beginning of the word ‘ball’ and so on. The book is designed to give learners ample opportunities to practise the letter sounds with the teachers as well as on their own. This is the first of the three books on phonics. The progression across the books is from the easier activities, which are based on listening to the more rigorous activities, which involve the application of knowledge of phonics as well as practice of writing.
