Resource details

This download includes ALL sounds for Phase 2 phonics. Each sound is part of a set - four sets are included. Set 1 includes sounds s a t p i n, Set 2 includes sounds m d g o c k, Set 3 includes sounds ck e b r u h and Set 4 includes sounds f ff l ll ss.

This activity has been designed to write straight on. Letters include ‘starting dots’ so learners know where to place their pencil to begin and dots on top of letters guide where to write.

Phase 2 All Sounds

There are four sheets included (for each set), slightly different in design and level of challenge/support provided, though each sheet is numbered 1 - 4 (at the top of each sheet). These numbers (and the cover image) left to right indicate the levels in order of easiest to hardest. Sheet 1 provides the most support with the least amount of challenge, sheet 4 provides the least amount of support with the most challenge. The different designs makes it easier to select the level that best suits your learner/s.

The font used is Sassoon Infant Std - size 100.

Each set of letters has been included on a line - to model how letters should look when positioned correctly on a line.

There is a clear space at the top of each sheet for learners to write their name.

• Page 1

Learners have one set (row) of each letter/sound to write - using the starting dot and dotted lines (on top of each pale grey letter shape) as a guide.

• Page 2

Learners have two sets (rows) of each letter/sound to write - using the dotted lines as a guide for the first line. The second line includes the same (grey) letter shapes for learners to trace over without a starting dot and without the dotted line guides. Some letters share the empty line due to limited space.

• Page 3

Learners have two sets (rows) of each letter/sound to write - using the dotted lines as a guide for the first line. The second line includes some grey letter shapes for learners to trace over without a starting dot. There is also a blank space for learners to write their own letters after this for every letter. Some letters share the empty line due to limited space.

• Page 4

Learners have two sets (rows) of each letter/sound to write - using the dotted lines as a guide for the first line. The second line is a blank line for learners to write each support without any scaffolding support. Some letters share the empty line due to limited space.
