A Complete Australian Phonics Programme
for Homeschoolers
Many programmes claim to offer phonics but there is no
other Australian programme which offers as much as this one.
�
5
Phonics Books
with step by step directions teaching
�
Single sounds: a, b, c etc.
�
Combining single sounds so that
within eight sounds the child can read a simple paragraph and at the end of
twenty-six single sounds the child can read a whole page.
�
Multiple sounds: many sounds like a,
e or ou have more than one sound.� These are introduced in a logical sequence.
�
Double sounds: ee,
ea, th, ow, etc
�
Spelling rules: e.g. f, l, s, z is
doubled after a short vowel.
�
Clear instructions on what to say
and what to use.

�
Sheets that mirror those in the
Phonics books. (click here to view)
����� These sheets provide extension work in
the form of craft and activity sheets.
�
Sheet with sound and picture to
associate with the sound: small children are very visual. They find it easier
to remember the sounds if there are pictures.
�
Craftwork associated with the
sound. In the first two packs there are more craft sheets than in later packs.
�
Worksheets: extra practise is
given in using the sounds. These also include word searches and crossword
puzzles in kits 4 and 5.
�
Revision sheets in addition to the
work in the book.
�
Test: revision test at the end of
each pack to ensure all sounds have been�����
mastered. In set 5 a revision test is included for all sounds previously
used. (click here to view)
����� Two art packs contain all the art and
craft material needed for Activity & Craft Sheets 1-5.
This programme is
inexpensive compared to many other programmes. The materials are
available as five self-contained kits. Children start at their own level. Half
of the material is re-useable for other children.
All work leads naturally into Grade one material
Complete
details of all these books may be found listed in our catalogue under Phonics
Kits.
The
individual items may be purchased separately or as a complete kit.
The complete
programme takes fifteen to eighteen months to
complete.
