Phonics are defined as a way of teaching reading and spelling that stresses symbol-sound relationships, used especially in beginning instruction. I use phonics practice with my students from 2 years old all the way to adults. I learned how to read in the U.S.A with phonics, so I really believe it can give a solid foundation of what the letters sound like. For example, A sounds like ahh. Of course there are many exceptions to this, and I recommend not relying completely on phonics to get children to read, but it is a great starting point.

I have 2 Chants for practicing phonics. The first chant is the basic phonic sounds from A to Z, the second chant contains words that start with the phonic sounds. The second chant also cooresponds to My First Handwriting Book, which you can download below.

1. ABC Phonics Chant 1: Phonic sounds A to Z- Letter Name first then Phonics Sound

2. ABC Phonics Chant 2: Phonics Sound Only! Try Me!

3. ABC Phonics Chant 2: A-apple, B-bird, etc.

How to teach: I teach phonics by simply holding up a flashcard and saying the name of the letter, then the sound of the letter. Exactly as I recorded it in this chant. Once you students are comfortable with the sounds of the letters, you can say the letter name, sound and then a word that starts with the letter. For example:
A (ahh) apple!
B (buu) book!
It is always great to finish off practicing phonics by singing the ABC Song!

What is Phonics?

Phonics is defined as a way of teaching reading and spelling that stresses symbol-sound relationships, used especially in beginning instruction. I use phonics practice with my students from 2 years old all the way to adults. I learned how to read in the U.S.A with phonics, so I really believe it can give a solid foundation for beginning readers. For example, A sounds like "aaa" in the word apple, which starts with the "aaa" sound. A-aaa-apple! Without the use of phonics, children would have to memorize every word they come across in order to read.

Think of phonics as the building blocks of reading. According to Wiley Blevins in his excellent book Phonics from A to Z: A Practical Guide(Published by Scholastic), "Studies show that half of all English words can be spelled with phonics rules that relate one letter to one sound." That's amazing! Think of the world of reading opportunities you are opening for your students by teaching them phonics!

This page is a collection of my teaching ideas and materials for teaching phonics, all for free download. You will find phonics chants, ABC Songs, phonics worksheets, and more! All free to use to help your children and students to learn how to read. This page is new in 2009, and I will be adding a lot to this page, so please check back often.
