Learn English with Letterland

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 1 and Level 2 before starting Level 3, however included in Level 3 is a quick review of the previous levels.

Part 1 - 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 oi au aw ou ow ph wh air ear suffixes

Letterland goes further...

There are 3 Fix-it Phonics levels. All levels include:

Letter recognition skills

Listening and speaking skills

Basic English vocabulary

Oral blending and segmenting

High frequency words.

Level 1 - focuses on Aa-Zz shapes and sounds.

Level 2 - revises a-z and introduces important digraphs and trigraphs Level 3 - introduces more important digraphs and trigraphs, building the foundations for full literacy in English.

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!
