A quick and inexpensive resource to make to encourage children to blend sounds together to form words. I would start by getting children to identify the sounds and practise blending them together on the side with just the letters showing. They can then lift the flaps in order from left to right, again saying the sounds, to reveal the pictures and check whether they were correct. If your child is struggling with blending one of the things you can try is starting the word with continuous consonant

Children will literally push the letters together just like they need to do with the sounds. #phonicsfamily #phonics #teachingphonics #learntoread #handsonlearning #practicallearning #play #learnthroughplay #reading #trythis #parents #teachers #tutors #earlyyears #literacy | Phonics Family

🔤 Blending sounds = Reading made simple! There are 2 main ways: 👉 Successive Blending – blend sounds step by step. For example: /s/ → /sa/ → /sat/. Perfect for beginners who need to build confidence. 👉 Continuous Blending – stretch and slide all sounds smoothly. For example: /ssssaaaat/ → sat. Great for fluency and reducing pauses. Both methods work together to help children become strong, independent readers! 🌟📖 #PhonicsTeaching #BlendingMadeEasy #LearnToRead #phonicsforkids #phonicsactivi
