✨One of my favourite reading tips✨ I use mine over and over again!!!! All you need is markers and cue cards!

Once you have taught a new phonics skill add it to a card: - consonants -vowels -consonant blends -digraphs -vowel teams -r controlled vowels -word endings and any other skill you are practicing!

🛑 STOP memorizing words 🛑 teach your learners the why and they will be able to apply!!! 🙌🏻 When teaching phonics I like to make learning fun! Hence my story for the reason behind OPEN and CLOSED syllables ⬆️ I teach my learners that the vowel will sing 🎶 it’s name but when the consonant comes (we stomp our feet 👣) it stops the vowel from singing (stage fright 🙈). For example, like the word “go” and “got”. I love how my learners were so excited about this new skill that they even added sin

✨Literacy TIP how to teach blends✨ You are going to want to SAVE this for later! After your child is able read: 👍 CVC Words 👍 Digraphs Next on the literacy line up is blends! (Some people teach blends before digraphs and that is ok too) Blends are 2 different sounds smushed together to make a blended sound. We have 3 consonant blends : L blends (pl, cl, fl etc.) R blends (tr, gr, pr, etc.) S blends (sw, sc, so, etc.) Time to sing 🎶 the blends! Sing a blend to your learners and have them echo
