Phonics Sound Story Starter Lesson Ideas
There are so many fun ways that you can use Phonics Sound Story Starters in your lessons! Below is one of the ways that I use Phonics Story Starters in my day to day lessons:
Tip: get your students to look at the pictures, sound them out and blend them back together! They could even write the word next to the pictures.
I have listed a more few ways that I use them in my day to day phonics lessons:
- Write silly stories, see who can use the pictures to make up the silliest phonics story!
- Use Phonics Story Starters at the the end of your lesson to assess the level of understanding of the target sound during the lesson
Why not use our online phonics games to reinforce your target sound in the starter or plenary of your lesson? Take a look at our Phonics Flashcards for a great way to start your next phonics lessons!
