Remove the confusion around phonological awareness and equip children with all the skills needed to conquer the world of words—spelling, reading and writing—with R.I.C.’s must-have new Phonological awareness skills.

This series of five comprehensive books covers all the basics for early childhood children (from four years of age) but also assists older students who are struggling with phonics and spelling. It incorporates skills that fit into any phonics or spelling program. The series emphasises oral language.

Twelve skills are presented in developmental order over the five books and include the following skills:

Book 1: Auditory discrimination, rhyming and alliteration
Book 2: Segmentation and syllabification, and blending
Book 3: Phoneme matching and phoneme isolation
Book 4: Phoneme completion, and phoneme addition and deletion
Book 5: Phoneme segmentation, phoneme substitution and phoneme reversal

The last 7 skills relate to phoneme manipulation.

The skills are presented as fun, hands-on games and activities for whole class, small group and pairs, with full instructions (including the actual words to say if required), all game/activity resources, supporting worksheets if applicable, differentiation suggestions, formative and summative assessments and answers. Literature links and suggested websites for games are also included where applicable.

The activities are predominantly oral activities for four-year-olds but are also appropriate for learners who struggle with letter-symbol correspondence, those beginning to read and older children who need support.

The games and activities are perfect for learning stations and easily managed by adult and parent helpers. They can also be used for early finishers to consolidate skills or to motivate young learners needing extension.

The activities link perfectly to the Early Years Learning Framework and the Phonics and word knowledge section of the Language areas of South African Curriculum English.
