Use the SSP Speech Sound Play Plan before teaching any phonics programme, not just the Speech Sound Pics Approach, to screen for dyslexia risk by assessing phonemic awareness and phonological working memory. We are identifying the 1 in 4 children at risk of struggling to learn phonics before phonics instruction begins.
IPA-aligned Phonemies are Speech Sound Monsters®. They show children the speech sound value of letters. Letters are pictures of speech sounds (Speech Sound Pics®), making word mapping visual, linguistic, and fun. Reading for pleasure by 7!
The Speech Sound Wall
As teachers can't teach all correspondences explicitly, it's important that they can see the WHOLE alphabetic code, and use it as a reference throughout the day.
The Core Code is shown on the outside
(the GPCs taught and tested within DfE validated synthetic phonics programmes)
