The great songs and lessons from the free downloads, with higher quality mp3's, review worksheets, a poster, and 2 Bonus Phonics Songs to practice with the poster are included. Here is what you get:
What
is Phonics? Phonics is defined as a way of teaching
reading and spelling that stresses symbol-sound relationships, used
especially in beginning instruction. I use phonics practice with
my students from 2 years old all the way to adults. I learned how
to read in the U.S.A with phonics, so I really believe it can give
a solid foundation for beginning readers. For example, A sounds
like "aaa" in the word apple, which starts with the "aaa"
sound. A-aaa-apple! Without the use of phonics, children would have
to memorize every word they come across in order to read. Think of phonics as the building blocks of reading. According to Wiley Blevins in his excellent book Phonics from A to Z: A Practical Guide(Published by Scholastic), "Studies show that half of all English words can be spelled with phonics rules that relate one letter to one sound." That's amazing! Think of the world of reading opportunities you are opening for your students by teaching them phonics! This page is a collection of my teaching ideas and materials for teaching phonics, all for free download. You will find phonics chants, ABC Songs, phonics worksheets, and more! All free to use to help your children and students to learn how to read. This page is new in 2009, and I will be adding a lot to this page, so please check back often.
