All About Teaching and Learning Phonics

[RRMummy]

Hi Wan,

Wan:

my son actually asked me, 'mummy, only 4 pages ah??'

any other phonics books to share?

I just purchased Ladybird Phonics Series - Book 2 - 'Splat Cat' and Book 3 - 'Hot Fox' from Popular. They have the more advance books as well but I refrained myself from buying the whole lot..

Also found a good Phonics book in Woodlands library \"Pig Wig\" has readings on 'ig', 'at' and 'ug' family. The middle face remained the same then when you flip every other page (whole in the middle) the face is then the face for the CAT or BAT...DD1 loved it.. psst... can also DIY based on similar idea..

Also bought some books from the Peter and Jane series...

tamarind & all,


I have been an avid reader of ur thread since I joined KSP forum, but didn't contribute as I'm as new to phonics as my 4yo son who attends pcf. in the 70s, the term 'phonics' was unheard of, but I think we still learn pronunciation of words similarly

I hate flashcards and use traditional reading methods which I enjoy bonding with my children. recently, I bought 2 books 'bat's hats' http://brainytots.multiply.com/photos/album/14/Board_Book#134 & 'bug's mug' http://brainytots.multiply.com/photos/album/14/Board_Book#135
for them. the turning wheel seems like a good idea, although the board books are rather thin. my son actually asked me, 'mummy, only 4 pages ah??'

an idea came to mind. I was thinking of adopting the same idea of a turning wheel and DIY using a paper plates. anyone tried similar 'craft' or teaching materials? any other phonics books to share?

Yes! Can do yourself, Wan. Just go get the \"round head fasteners\" at
your nearest stationery store. Paper plates, hard cardboard, normal
construction paper (etc)... all can be used! Can laminate if you want
the stuff to last.

I actually have put up these books in my other threads, cannot remember
where exactly right now, paiseh hor... :oops: but you can visit us here @

Cheerios.

Another DIY idea.


I bought a Phonics folder coz' my gal said she really had to have it..

Temporary Marker is provided. In it, the paper that is used are the temporary marker can wipe away kind.

In each row, there are 3 or 4 pictures (confined in little windows) then below the pix C_T. After kiddo has fill-in the blanks, they can just pull the strip with the pix and then it will reveal the correct spelling...

After that can erase and do it again another day..
