Forest Phonics

Learning Objective:
• Y1: Spell words containing each of the 40+ phonemes already taught.
• Y1: Apply simple spelling rules as listed in Appendix 1.
• Y1: To apply phonic knowledge and skills as the route to decode words when reading
• Y1: To respond speedily with the correct sound to graphemes (letters or groups of letters) for all 40+ phonemes, including, where applicable, alternative sounds for graphemes.

NB: If you're hearing no sound please refresh/reload the page. HTML5 can lose sound if other tabs are opened afterwards.

Choose a spelling pattern and you will be prompted to spell approximately ten words using that spelling pattern, e.g. 'ay' words. Your child will become more confident in their ability to spell by learning to spell through patterns. The sounds are easy to move around using the drag and drop sound cards. Each correct answer is rewarded with a funny animation. If you need help you can hear the word again or take a quick peek at how to correctly spell the word. A simple scoring system lets you know how well you've done. The game covers 30 spelling patterns suitable for children between the ages of 4 and 7 years of age.

Have fun!
