Phoneme Spotters/ Phoneme Finders

These sheets provide students with the opportunity to put new knowledge into practice. They provide a highly targeted approach, allowing the process of decoding to be simplified. Initially, children are simply looking for a target spelling pattern as they highlight it. Next, they are looking at how that fits into the wider word structure, as they sound button the word. Finally, they read the word. The target can be changed to match the focus of the child and the difficulty of the task. We often do the first half of the page, and then return sometime later to complete it as a consolidation exercise.
