Bridging Book 6 - Introduces New Sounds - Teacher Notes

The "Bridging Book 6" is a valuable educational resource that complements the phonic reading and spelling book "One Snowy Night On Earth" from the Mission Spelling Zero series. This workbook is specifically designed for children aged 4 to 8 years and offers a range of printable worksheets that require no preparation. It's an ideal tool for reinforcing the understanding of soft 'c', soft 'g', and various vowel digraphs such as 'ow', 'ou', 'oar', 'au', and 'aw'. Additionally, the workbook provides exercises for enhancing basic comprehension skills, making it an essential follow-up activity book for those who are already using the One Snowy Night On Earth resource.

The Mission Spelling Zero scheme introduces a new character, an innovative alien with exceptional computer skills, who guides children through their phonics journey. The scheme consists of seven levels, each represented by a different colour of the rainbow, and is aimed at helping young learners develop their initial reading and spelling abilities. Starting with basic sounds, the course progresses to more complex phonics concepts such as double consonant blends and vowel digraphs. As children advance through the levels, their phonic skills become a vital tool 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, setting a strong foundation for reading and spelling proficiency.
