Zoggy Can Fly In His Craft - Teacher Notes (Writing And Comprehension Practice)

The 'Mission Spelling Zero' scheme presents an innovative approach to early literacy development, tailored for children aged 4 to 8 years. As part of this scheme, the teacher notes for "Zoggy Can Fly In His Craft" offer phonic writing practice and comprehension worksheets that complement the main resource. These materials are designed for children who have already been introduced to the indigo level of the series. The accompanying workbook is filled with activities that reinforce phonics, such as solidifying letter sounds, tracing, writing letters and words, as well as simple comprehension tasks based on Zoggy's story.

Zoggy, the central character in the 'Mission Spelling Zero' series, is an alien with exceptional computer skills, ready to guide children through the fundamentals of reading and spelling. Starting with initial sounds, Zoggy's adventures lead young learners through more complex aspects of phonics, including double consonant blends and vowel digraphs. As children progress through the seven levels of the programme, each represented by a different colour of the rainbow, their phonic skills become a powerful tool for accelerating future learning. Additionally, the scheme includes a series of writing booklets that allow children to practice handwriting, construct sentences, and engage in games that reinforce their newly acquired skills.
