Phonics
Phonics is one of the secret weapons when it comes to teaching reading and spelling, that unleashes the magic of words for young learners. By breaking down words into individual syllables, phonics helps our students understand how letters represent those sounds. It gives them the power to sound out and blend words, paving the way for fluent reading.
Like our instructor Maranda said, “Imagine going on an exciting adventure where each letter becomes a superhero with its own unique superpower. These letter heroes join forces to form amazing teams called blends, digraphs, and diphthongs. Together, they conquer word puzzles and overcome the challenges of language. “
When it comes to teaching phonics, it’s all about personalization and making it relevant to each student. Every child is unique, with their own interests and learning styles. By embracing this diversity, We can create a learning environment that meets the needs of each student, making phonics more engaging and effective.

What does our teacher say?
Think outside the box and bring creativity into your phonics lessons. Make it interactive and hands-on! Incorporate activities like word games, rhyming exercises, and phonics-based stories to make learning fun and memorable. You can even tap into technology, using educational apps or online resources that make phonics come alive on screen.
Remember, differentiation is key. Assess each student's readiness and progress, and tailor your instruction accordingly. Provide extra support for struggling learners and offer enrichment activities for those who excel. At Pebble, by customizing the learning experience, you're empowering each student to reach their full potential.
Collaboration is also vital. Encourage parents and caregivers to get involved in their child's phonics journey. Share resources, suggest books that align with the phonics curriculum, and organize literacy events. By bridging the gap between home and school, you create a powerful support system that enhances learning outcomes.
