About Fix-it Phonics

Fix-it Phonics will help your child to make the link between a letter’s

sound and shape — an important first step in a method of learning to read called phonics

Learning about digraphs & trigraphs

It is recommended that children complete Level | and Level 2 before starting Level 3, however included in Level 3 is a quick review of the previous levels

Part | - summarises the a-z Letterland characters, sounds and shapes

Part 2 - summarises the digraphs’ and trigraphs’ taught in Level 2

(2 or 3 letters representing a new sound e.g sh in shop)

It is very important that letter sounds are taught correctly as just by starting

to say a character’s name, you will be saying the sound they make in words

You then have the tools to blend the letter sounds into simple words:

mmm ’ ‘a ’ ‘nnn ’ - man

Simple but incredibly powerful stories unlock thousands of new words

Children will learn how letters combine to make more new sounds

Level 3 will unlock the following sounds/spelling patterns:

oo oy of au aw ou ow ph wh air ear suffixes

Letterland goes further

Level 2 - revises a-z and introduces important digraphs and trigraphs

Level 3 - introduces more important digraphs and trigraphs, building the

Letterland is fun!

We feel the most important thing about learning English, and learning how to

read and write, is to have fun That’s why Fix-it Phonics is full of songs, games, actions, chants and colourful characters We want you, and the children you

teach, to enjoy it!

Do you remember the story about Mr O protecting Oscar? Mr O helps out whenever

- he’s around, but when Mr O is away, Walter

starts his water tricks again!

Sometimes when you see Oscar and Walter together you will hear a very

different sound This is because Walter tries to splash Oscar again But as Walter

splashes, he slips and bumps his chin

Now, they both

howl, “Ow!”
