Sound It Out

The all-in-one Sound It Out Resource is an easy-to-use resource that is extremely versatile. Designed in collaboration with Deirdre O’ Toole (Playful Classroom) making it the first of it’s kind designed for the Irish classroom.

It can be used alongside any synthetic phonics programme and aligned with any scope and sequence, as a stand-alone resource to explore articulatory gestures during phonemic awareness instruction, and as a reference for spelling.

Sound it Out includes everything busy teachers need to introduce a sound wall into their classrooms. Suitable for Junior Infants – Second Class or SET

Includes:
• Teacher Guide – This book contains valuable and detailed information to support your phonemic awareness and phonics instruction. There is one full page dedicated to each phoneme, with information on how the sound is articulated, and the most common ways of spelling it.
• Sound Wall cards – for building a Sound Wall display in your classroom. There is one card for each phoneme in the English language. * Each card has a mouth photograph and a keyword picture.
• Spelling cards – also for the Sound Wall display. These cards should be placed underneath the photo/ picture cards as each new letter-sound correspondence is taught.
• Flipbook – for teaching/focusing on a particular phoneme. On one side of the page is a large mouth photograph, which can be shown to the children. On the other side are instructions for the teacher.
• Pupil Practice Book – for children to practice pronouncing the sounds at home. There are mouth photographs for the children to copy and a mirror for them to observe their own mouth position. Information for parents is also included for each sound.
