Featured in the What's Hot Section of the UK app store; the Twinkl phonics App is designed to support children in developing some of the key skills taught in Phases 1-5 of the DfES Letters and Sounds Document. Activities are presented in a fun, child friendly way (with lovely twinkl artwork) and covers the following:
- The sounds and names of each letter of the alphabet
- Letter formation
- Blending sounds in CVC words
- The graphemes taught in phases 2-3 (including digraphs and trigraphs)
- Initial and final blends
- Alternative spellings for phonemes
- High frequency and tricky words for each phase.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
Please remember to turn your iPad off mute and ensure you have the latest iOS before starting to use this App!
If you have purchased the twinkl Phonics Suite, it is not necessary to purchase the individual phases.
All of the features in the individual phases are included in the main suite.
There is no animate, no games, nothing, it is simply a glorified wordlist. You are allowed to touch and hear the letter and the picture, and trace the word that is it. Very dry and boring. So much for a fun way to teach my daughter vowel digraphs. Also they charged my card twice. I will be filing a complaint with my bank if it's still there tomorrow.
I love this app and use it daily but please fix the sound. It is a real problem for my kids. It's slow and doesn't match the actions on the screen. Thanks
