From phonological awareness to phonics

 

 As an Early Literacy Specialist and SENCo, I focus on helping mums build strong early literacy foundations through everyday routines. So when there is time for more time-consuming activities, they're building on the learning that’s already happening.

What do I do with my child before phonics?

The most important reading skills are taught before letter sounds are even introduced, but that little tidbit isn't widely known to parents... 👀

Before Phonics

Every crucial skill your child needs to know before starting phonics.

 80% of children who struggle to read have a weakness in phonological awareness and phase 1 phonics. Before Phonics is the only programme out there made specifically for parents to help their child build the best reading foundations.

"All parents of preschool children need this! I'm shocked at how easy all of the activities are to fit in every day life without any setup or cost. I was a little unsure about what to do, but now I feel more confident in approaching phase 1 phonics!"
