Overview

The word ‘phonics’ is often used by teachers (and children) without so much as a second thought. But what is phonics and how does it work? Phonics at Home gives parents all the tools needed to understand phonics and how it’s taught in primary schools, and then presents a wealth of fun, multi-sensory games and activities to help any child develop their phonics skills. Kate Robinson uses her wealth of experience as a teacher and teacher trainer to demystify phonics with clear explanations of related terminology and step-by-step instructions to help parents and children make the most of every activity. What’s more, the easy-to-play games work with any phonics scheme – it doesn’t matter which scheme the school is using – and use items found around the house. Ideal for Key Stage 1 and early Key Stage 2 children, this practical book is a necessity for all parents keen to support their child’s reading and spelling development at home.
