By the end of the Early Years, the average child should have strong initial sound (or phoneme) awareness, knowledge of at least half of the alphabet sounds and acquired onset and rime blending. At this age, children have an emerging awareness of words, letters, numbers, and sounds within words and the Essential Early Years Literacy Starter Pack can assist.
To get your students to this point by the end of Term 4, PLD has bundled its essential Early Years Literacy resources into a Starter Pack to get you started below!
The Essential Early Years Literacy Starter Pack contains:
- Vocabulary and Syllable Time – Set 2

Early Years: Kindergarten (WA/QLD/SA/TAS), Preschool (NSW/ACT/NT/VIC)
The Early Years are a significant period in a child’s development. For best outcomes, play and child-centered approaches need to be balanced with explicit targeted instruction. In the Early Years, PLD programs focus on pre-literacy skills such as phonological awareness and the alphabet sounds, as well as fine and gross motor and oral language skill development.
