Outlining the relationship between letters and sounds.
Introduction to the Program
This essential guide outlines the PLD approach to implementing reading and spelling instruction from Foundation to Year 6. The Program Includes:
A structured whole-school scope and sequence, outline phonic concepts, morphology, reading and spelling words, regular and irregular high-frequency words.
Termly assessments to establish the range in ability and reviewing progress.
Stages 1-3 focus on teaching essential phonic concepts and common-bound morpheme suffixes.
Stages 4-6 focus on extending alternative spellings of phonic concepts and more sophisticated word attack spelling based on syllables, prefixes, suffixes and morphemes.
Difficulty acquiring Stage 1 concept assessments to investigate slow-to-progress students.
Posters and guidelines on the explicit teaching of reading and spelling words in phonemes or syllables and irregular high-frequency words.

Outlining the relationship between letters and sounds.
By middle and upper primary, classes typically have a huge range in ability levels. Using the placement tests in Phonic and Sight Word Sequence levels are quickly established and class specific content can be devised. This best selling resource covers Foundation all the way through to Year 6 and provides teachers and parents with:
A structured whole-school scope and sequence for primary schools, outlining phonic concepts, spelling rules, morphology, reading and spelling words, sight words and assessments.
Termly reviews are provided for establishing the range in ability, for reviewing progress and for measurable data.
Stages 1, 2 and 3 primarily outline structured synthetic phonics content along with common bound morpheme suffixes.
Stages 4, 5 and 6 are comprised of structured synthetic plus more sophisticated word attack spelling based upon syllables, prefixes, suffixes, and morphemes.
Placement tests, term reviews, and short investigations when students are slow to progress are included.
Guidelines for the explicit teaching of sight words are contained within the appendix.

Developing the relationship between letters, sounds and phonics.
This handy Synthetic Phonics Flip Book for Stage 2 resource is intended to provide important synthetic phonic concepts in a practical format which will assist when teaching the whole class or small groups of students. Synthetic phonics is a way of teaching children to read and spell. It has been identified as the most successful approach to establishing early literacy skills. The ‘synthetic’ component relates to the ‘synthesising’ or blending of phonemes (or individual speech sounds) and the ‘phonic’ component relates to written symbols (graphemes) being linked to the individual speech sounds (phonemes).
In order to learn how to read, a child links letters to speech sounds and then blends them together to form words. When learning to spell a child separates or segments a word into the individual speech sounds within the word while linking the sounds to letters.
Features:
Designed by speech pathologists for use in schools.
The flip book is based upon PLD’s ‘structured synthetic phonics’ (SSP) approach.
Consolidates Stage 1 concepts, before presenting stage 2 phonic sounds.
A range of reading and spelling words are provided for each alphabet and phonic sound.
Students associate a picture and keywords with each phonic concept.
An effective and engaging way to develop early phonic concepts.
The Flip Book contains the following levels:
Set 1 (Stage 1 Revision) – ck, sh, th, ch, wh, ee, oo, ing
Set 2 (Stage 1 Revision) – ai, er, or, oi, ar, ay, oy, all
Set 3 (Stage 2) – i-e, a-e, o-e, e-e, u-e
Set 4 (Stage 2) – aw, oe, ew, ou, ow, ir, ea, y, oa, ue, ie, ur
Set 5 (Tricky Graphemes) – qu, x

Synthetic phonics, vocabulary and writing activities.
The ability to read well is a basic skill and vital to national survival (Chall 1989). However, there have been ongoing concerns regarding the poor adult literacy rates since the introduction of whole language approaches to literacy development both within Australia and internationally. In 2004 these concerns led to a National Inquiry into the Teaching of Literacy (NITL) here in Australia. The results, published in 2005 recognised the importance of a systematic, synthetic phonics approach to reading instruction (Bowey 2006). These findings were independently echoed in the US and UK with recommendations that teaching of reading and spelling must include a synthetic phonics approach (Dooner 2010).
As Joshi (2009) clearly outlines, one cannot teach what one does not understand, and it is therefore important that teachers understand synthetic phonics, the alphabetic code, phonological awareness and types of language and vocabulary and how these work together in the development of strong literacy skills. Spelling Activities for the Middle and Upper Primary is intended to provide a definition of synthetic phonics and related skills, an understanding of the importance of synthetic phonics, and practical suggestions for how to teach synthetic phonics within the classroom, in addition to specific spelling activities which are based on the principles of synthetic phonics and are ready to use with your students individually, within small groups or as part of whole-class activities.
Features:
Middle and Upper Primary spelling activities resource (which incorporates synthetic phonics and linguistic theory).
Three levels of each template aim to cater for the range in ability (i.e. delayed, average and advanced students) evident in classrooms.
The activity templates are ready to photocopy.
A key resource when establishing a spelling program.
Assessment points are located at the base of each sheet (for students, a peer or teachers to rate task performance).
An ideal complement to PLD’s Phonic Sight Word Sequence.
