Read Write Inc. Speed Sound Cards - Set 1

Ref: 9780198460350


Price: £7.99 (Including VAT at 20%)

Quantity:




Before children can start to read, they need to learn to say the sounds that are represented by each letter or group of letters. In Read Write Inc. phonics, the individual sounds are called 'Speed Sounds'. Once children know these, they can start to put them together (or sound-blend' them) into words for reading.

Speed Sound Cards Set 1 (32 cards). Each card has a picture on one side merged with its initial letter to teach the mnemonic. The letter-sound pictures are used to help teach children to say, read and write these sounds:
m - a - s - d - t - i - n - p - g - o - c - k - u - b - f - e - l - h - sh - r - j - v - y - w - th - z - ch - qu - x - ng - nk

Read Write Inc. (formerly known as Ruth Miskin Literacy or RML) is a lively phonic programme that gets children reading and writing fast - it is now used in many schools in the UK. These Speed Sound cards can also be used very effectively alongside other reading schemes to help children learn to read with phonics.

These cards are also available in A4 size - please see Read Write Inc. resources in the Phonics Bookshop.
