Start Learning To Spell With Phonics (7-11 years) - Activity Pack (1)

The "Start Learning To Spell With Phonics" Activity Pack is tailored for children aged between 7 and 11 years old. Created by Sally Jones and Amanda Jones, this educational resource is designed to introduce young learners to the fundamental elements of phonics, which is a method used for teaching reading and spelling that focuses on the sounds that letters make. The pack aims to help children familiarise themselves with the 26 initial phonic sounds that form the foundation of the English language, providing a structured approach to mastering spelling through phonics.

The pack features a unique character, Zoggy, an extraterrestrial being from the distant planet Zen, which is three million light years away. Zoggy, equipped with a 'computer brain' and built-in spellcheck capabilities, has embarked on a mission to assist Earth's young learners in improving their spelling skills. As children work through various challenges presented in the pack, Zoggy promises to guide them through the process of learning to spell using phonics while exploring Earth. The first challenge Zoggy sets is to ensure that learners can recognise and identify all lowercase letters of the alphabet, from 'a' through to 'z', laying the groundwork for their phonics learning journey.
