Short Vowel Resources - Medial 'A'

This is a pack of Amazing Alphabet Fade-Out Cards. They are A6 sized so are useful for individual and small group work. The fade-out system allows smaller increments of progress to be recognised. They can be used to make teaching resources or to track individual progress.

This printable resource provides cover sheets and 9 word-picture pairs for each of the 36 graphemes/phonemes introduced in book 1. It covers the initial alphabet letter sounds, the short vowel sounds in the medial position, and the consonant digraphs (ch, sh, th, ng). It also includes ‘qu’ as a digraph for those introducing the sound as a digraph.

The Amazing Alphabet Word Banks – Each list has been carefully compiled to meet the needs of learners needing early literacy intervention. Each letter of the alphabet has an initial sound word list where familiar words begins with that initial sounds are collected and sorted by word length. This is accompanied by a comprehensive list of CVC words (sorted by initial and final sound where applicable). This allows support to be focused on the precise area of learning the child needs to focus on. There is also a word bank for each of the short medial vowels including initial and final consonant clusters. This allows children to extend their phonological awareness and confidence with spelling longer words while still focused on short vowel sounds. Finally, word banks for the simplest consonant digraphs – th, sh, ch, & ng, have been included. This book covers a vast array of words suitable for use in the games and activities suggested in the Dyslexic Logic – Literacy Support Programme (part 1).
