Spelling Books for Year 1 & Year 2 (Set of 4)
Improve progress with Monster Phonics Spelling Books. Four books are included in this set. Each shows colour-coded spelling lists for every spelling in Year 1 and Year 2.
Traditional ways of learning to spell can be time-consuming and for some children they are ineffective. Monster Phonics is colour-coded for sound to accelerate learning.
The colour coding of the spelling books is aligned with the Monster Phonics programme which recognises that children learn differently. It provides different memory cues for multiple ways of learning.
What is Monster Phonics?
The 26 letters of the alphabet and combinations of these letters make 44 speech sounds in English.
The 44 sounds (phonemes) are spelt by 144 different letter combinations (graphemes). For example, the sound A is spelt 5 different ways ay (play), ai (train).
Monster Phonics categorises sounds into 10 areas and uses the Monsters as a categorisation. Each monster has a different colour. That colour represents that way of spelling the sound.
Why does it improve learning?
Children learn through the assignment of colour and the linkage of the sound, as well as seeing the colour, creating more ways of remembering the spelling.
Year 2 – Book 2
Year 1 – Book 1A and Book 1B
