Schofield & Sims My Letters and Sounds is a comprehensive programme for teaching systematic synthetic phonics. The My Letters and Sounds Phonics Practice Pupil Books can be used in conjunction with the My Letters and Sounds Teacher’s Handbooks to help support and embed learning. Designed for use at home or at school, they provide practice in the key phonic skills of grapheme recognition and recall, blending to read and segmenting to spell, and build children’s confidence in reading and writing captions and sentences. Phonics Practice Pupil Book 7reinforces content from Phase Five, Term 2 and Phase Five, Term 3 ofMy Letters and Sounds. In this book, your child will learn alternative graphemes for known phonemes. For example, children learn that the /v/ sound can be made by the grapheme ‘ve’ as well as the grapheme ‘v’ which they learnt in Reception. As the new graphemes are introduced, ‘phoneme families’ are revised, which helps to build children’s knowledge of alternative spellings of phonemes. This supports the development of their spelling as well as their reading. With a page or double-page spread for every new learning point in My Letters and Sounds, the book provides highly targeted practice and integrated revision of recently learnt GPCs and tricky words. Each book provides:

• targeted practice of each new learning point from My Letters and Sounds
• integrated revision of previous learning
• enjoyable, age-appropriate activities
• a helpful glossary of key phonic terms.
