Phonics Starter Kit 1

Beginner Elementary Phonics and Alphabet Awareness / Ages 4-10

Motor skills; Letters/Sounds A-F

The first Phonics Starter concentrates on checking and building students' basic motor skills, phonemic awareness, initial letter writing and linking/application to illustrated vocabulary.

The five lessons in this unit of study cover letters and sounds A-F, and the motor skills required to build these sounds as written letters. Illustrated vocabulary contrasts letters with the vocabulary that will feature in later lessons. The focus for this month is on "first letter" and "first sound" vowels "a" and "e" employ vocabulary to emphasize those letters' short sound in initial position.

The teacher at this point should be focusing on ensuring that students can clearly associate the phonemic value of the letters with the vocabulary that has that initial sound, and that they begin to write the letters clearly and neatly.
