Phonics First PACK - including 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5 FULL Network Site Licence Now only $499! |
Phonics First 1 is the first program in a series of five comprehensive, fully integrated, beginning reading programs that are carefully structured to teach students the word attack, comprehension and spelling skills they need to become effective readers.
In Phonics First 1 students learn the sounds for the letters of the alphabet and, through a variety of activities, are taught to recognize and use them in their correct position in words.
For example, if students are to acquire basic reading skills, they must be able to locate the sounds 'b', 'a' and 't' in the word 'bat'. The development of this ability (known as phonemic awareness) is essential if students are to develop accurate and reliable reading skills.
The program also teaches students to recognize the relationship between written letters and the sounds they represent, starting with the simplest letter-sound relationships and then going on to mastery of increasingly complex word patterns.
At this level, students are also taught simple blending techniques to enable them to develop effective word attack skills. Assessment activities complete the program.
Phonics First is suitable for all beginning readers and is also useful
for students in the middle primary years who are experiencing learning
difficulties and reading problems, including those who are dyslexic
or have dyscalculia short-term memory or ADD. 
It is also a suitable resource for ESL students - English as a Second Language.
Phonics First 1 includes:
* Fully interactive, beginning phonics program.
* Australian voices and spelling.
* Structured reading development.
* Motivational learning activities.
* Instant feedback and achievement recognition.
* Built-in achievement testing.
* Single letter sound, phonemic awareness skills.
Key to Success
Phonics First's careful construction and solid educational foundation is its key to success. Students are asked to read only those words containing the sounds or rules they have been taught, and only then are they tested to demonstrate their progress.
Phonics
First is an Australian made by Macroworks and is especially designed
for Australian schools and students.
