The 'An Alien Visits' teacher notes introduce an engaging resource aimed at teaching young learners about initial consonant blends and consonant digraphs. The resource includes a story designed to reinforce the phonetic sounds and provide spelling practice. Educators are encouraged to use this story in conjunction with Phonic Writing Practice and Comprehension worksheets to enhance the learning experience. This resource is a part of the 'Mission Spelling Zero' scheme, a structured course that supports children in their early stages of reading and spelling development.

'Mission Spelling Zero' is a comprehensive series comprising seven levels, each represented by a different colour of the rainbow, and is tailored to assist children in acquiring fundamental reading and spelling abilities. The scheme introduces a new character, Zoggy, an alien with exceptional computer skills, who guides children through the learning process. Starting with initial sounds, Zoggy's stories lay the foundation for learning double consonant blends and vowel digraphs. As children progress through the rainbow levels, their phonetic skills become a valuable asset for future learning. The scheme also includes a series of writing booklets that allow children to practice handwriting, construct sentences, and engage in games that reinforce their learning. 'Mission Spelling Zero' is available in both digital download and paperback formats, accessible online and in reputable book and education stores, spanning 35 pages of content.
