Vowel sounds can be spelt in many different ways. To acquire spelling skills, we need to learn the spelling patterns of each vowel sound, and there are often many different ways of spelling a single sound. For example, the words 'he', 'tree' and 'key' all make the long 'e' sound, but are spelt in different ways. The Vowel Sound Directory has identified 19 different vowel sounds in 3 categories: long vowels, short vowels and r-controlled vowels. During written expression children can access the vowel sound in a word and the different ways of spelling that sound. The unique flipbook and tabbed design means that pupils will be able to find words and sounds quickly, and the Smart Phonics colour coding is used throughout this clearly illustrated resource. Useful throughout primary and for older children with special needs.

T: Do you know what a vowel is In English, we have 5 letters with vowel sounds and each letter stands for two sounds, one long and one short. First of all, the 5 vowels are written as: a, e, i, o, u and sometimes y is also included as well. The sounds of the vowels usually change when there is an e at the end of the word, and we call this the silent e rule. (Then recap that the short sounds are the actual sounds of the letters and the long sounds are the names of the letters).
Beyond that, I do find Advanced Phonics knowledge, including long vowels, is important for rapidly recognizing a lot of high frequency words that are essential for fluent reading. I talk about the 300 most frequent words in this post.
We usually teach the Vowel + e pattern at the Advanced Phonics level (i.e., long vowels and other complicated vowel digraphs, etc.). We teach that through our Sort It activity. By then, most students are pretty good at blending sounds in words.
I was delighted to get my hands on these decodables! These books feature funny stories and diverse characters within the pages of sturdy little books. I love how the author includes teaching tips in each book, as well as a page with the target phonics skill, decodable words within the book, and the featured high frequency words.
I recently received a sample of decodable books from Read Bright along with curriculum materials. I was very impressed! The books are sturdy, beautifully illustrated, and tell interesting stories even with a limited number of phonics patterns. While you can certainly purchase the decodable books alone, you can also purchase accompanying workbooks, mnemonic alphabet posters, a fluency booklet, dictation pages, and more. All of it is brightly colored and clearly based on research. Read Bright is definitely worth checking out!
Jane, I have to disagree that teaching kids to read words by what makes sense or sounds right is teaching them to be defective readers. As I stated above, good readers use a combination of cueing systems to read. Phonics is just one part. I do agree, however, that phonics is an important part, and I appreciate learning about the Pocket Rockets stories. In the future I plan to write another post about where to find phonetic readers for all the vowels. I will need to check these out so I can include them in my list. Thank you for the recommendation! 59ce067264
