Learning Phonics with Fun
Subject: Early Years
(This idea was contributed by Namita Tanwar)
Age Range: Early Years

This is a very simple game.You need to write a letter and tell the child what sound it makes.

Choose some letters. The children will hold the letter card and will say their sound. Now make a game, giving an indication to the child to make his / her sound. For example sounding out the CVC word like 'cat' ask three children to hold a, c, t letters, tell them what sound each of the letter makes.

Now they have to jump and sit or just call out their sound in the right sequence of letters eg. c-sound, a-sound and t-sound.

Children holding the letters will say it in a speed c-a-t most probably it will be heard like 'cat'.
