Our packs are designed in line with the DCSF Letters and Sounds Publication, widely used in schools across the U.K. The six phase programme helps children develop fluent word reading skills and have a good foundation in spelling and letter writing. If you are homeschooling, the programme can provide you with online guidance for systematic, high quality phonics work.
These Bumper Packs come complete with interactive games and resources (created with SMART Notebook 10 and Powerpoint), visual aids, display materials, simple activities and center resources (all PDF format). Please ensure that you have the appropriate software installed on your computer.
