Guest Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 Hi We have started teaching the letters and sounds programme in our reception bases and I'm really enjoying planning, resourcing the 4 part phonic session. Anyone else doing it too? If so, any good ideas for quick ,pacy , all involved activities to do that work well..we haven't got any magnetic letters yet. Any oudoor ideas would be especially good. Thanks Redbase
Guest Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 Went on L&S training yesterday and came away with lots of ideas. They gave us these hand outs. Fun_with_Phonics_Activities.doc Rumble_in_the_Jungle.doc Examples_of_games.doc
Guest Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 Hi there is a program called LCP phonics that we use. I am unsure where you access it and get the resource file from. I am not sure how much it is either. You install it to your computer and it has activities and games on it (linking to the Phases 1 to 6) as well as plans for phase 1 to phase 6. It is fantastic to use - if you google it or talk to your literacy co-ordinator about this you may be able to get it in your school.
AnonyMouse_25084 Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 Sparkle box have loads of resources to match the activities in letters and sounds. This website is great too www.phonicsplay.co.uk. I also love teaching phonics!
AnonyMouse_21228 Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 thanks for sharing Emilia! I find some of the suggestions in the L& S book not very inspiring!
Guest Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 If you have an IWB my chidren love http://www.phonicsplay.co.uk/ lots of good games and you can select which letters you want to use from each phase, or add you own. I too have used loads of colour cartridges downloading the fabulous sparklebox apparatus, already sorted into phases. We have also used sparklebox cvc pics and put them onto a homemade beebot baseboard, children turn up a cvc word, blend to read and proramme Beebot to travel to that pic - all good fun to keep them keen and eager!
Guest Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 If you can or hear of it try and get on the Ann Foster phonics course its bloody brilliant
Guest Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 I have bought IWB games and resources from e bay, great time savers! the children really enjoy the games.
AnonyMouse_4544 Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 I used LCP phonics and Phonics Play with my class last year and they loved the games and songs unfortunately this year LCP has gone to subscription only. My class this year love the songs from Singing Phonics
AnonyMouse_4544 Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 If you can or hear of it try and get on the Ann Foster phonics course its bloody brilliant I agree I've been working with Ann for the last year she is great fun
Guest Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 oh you are so lucky, she is so inspiring she has transformed phonics in our school!!x

Guest LornaW Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 Does Ann's work cover phonics in the widest sense or is it mainly Jolly Phonics?
AnonyMouse_4544 Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 In the widest sense She will deliver L&S if the setting is using that programme with lots of her own ideas for fun activities thrown in She has lots of her own materials for practical activities to use with children from nursery
