What are phonics?


Phonics-based reading involves learning to recognize the distinct sounds,
or phonemes, that go together to make up words. There are just over
40 phonemes in the English language. Some phonemes correspond to a
single letter, like the p-i-g sounds in the word pig, and others to
combinations of letters, such as the sh-ar-k sounds in the word shark.
Synthetic phonics describes the process of reading by sounding the
individual phonemes in a word, and then synthesizing – running them
together – or blending to read the whole word. Children who learn to read
using synthetic phonics start by learning the individual phonemes, then
soon learn to sound and blend in order to read whole words. This gives
them the confidence to read unfamiliar words and tackle new texts, an
important step towards independent reading.
Words can be divided into two basic groups: regular phonic words, such as
“pig”, which can be read by sounding and blending, and words which are
wholly or partly irregular. Most words in English are regular, but some
very common words, such as I and the, are irregular and have to be
learned. When your child meets an unfamiliar word, encourage him or her
to read it regularly; children may recognize the irregularity and correct
themselves, or you can guide them if necessary.
When reading with your child, encourage him or her to sound out the
words as you go. Soon, most children will start to sound out the words for
themselves. This is an excellent way of helping to develop a fundamental
reading skill.

About the words in this book

Most words in Mouse Moves House can be broken down into single letters
representing single phonemes (such as “r-u-n” and “s-t-o-p”). There are
some words in the book, however, where a combination of letters creates
a single phoneme, and these are listed below.

IRREGULAR WORDS.
These are the words that don’t follow the phonic rules completely. Usually,
the consonants are regular but the vowels represent different phonemes.
You’ll need to teach your child how to pronounce these words and to
recognize the unexpected parts.
Here are the irregular words you’ll find in Mouse Moves House:
come
he
moves
moving
onto
opens
put
says
the
to
together
