Phonemic Awareness in Young Children - A Classroom Curriculum
- Phonemic awareness - distinguishing the individual sounds that make up words
and affect their meanings - is an essential preliteracy skill, and a hot topic
in education today. This supplemental curriculum is brimming with engaging, adaptable
language activities proven to increase phonemic awareness. Use them in any preschool,
kindergarten, or first-grade classroom. Its developmental sequence builds on simple
listening games and gradually moves on to more advanced sound manipulation exercises
like rhyming, alliteration, and segmentation.

• Phonics Pathways - Now in its ninth edition, Phonics Pathways is organized by sounds and spelling patterns. The patterns are introduced one at a time and slowly built into syllables, words, phrases, and sentences. Printed in a large lay–flat format for easy photocopying, Phonics Pathways is filled with illustrative examples, word lists, and practice readings that are 100 percent decodable. While appropriate for emergent readers, this award–winning book has also been used successfully with adolescent and adult learners, as well as second language learners and students with learning disabilities such as dyslexia. ('This useful book contains many photocopiable lists of words for each of the letter sounds. Perfect for any teacher, teaching assistant or parent helping a dyslexic child.' - John Bradford) USA

• Complete Reading and Spelling Phonic Programme - This system (based on British spellings) combines the teaching of both reading and spelling. It provides for pupils with different learning styles. It suits those who use their symbolic, auditory , or pictorial memory. It benefits equally those pupils with aptitude for language or those who find it difficult, and is used widely by special needs teachers as a basis for their multi sensory teaching. It also provides for children with poor concentration and appeals to children with artistic ability.
As the books can be photo-copied, it satisfies the needs of a whole school, its special needs section, or it can be used by the entire family and is therefore cost effective.
The system has been tried and tested over many years both in the classroom and with small groups or in tutorials. Pupils over a wide age range and of varying abilities have been successfully and enjoyably taught.
