Sounds Fun Phonics - Music Download

Along with teaching word families, phonics rules, and spelling patterns, this set of songs help kids learn words with sh, th, and ch! It also helps children learn to read words with long vowels spelled with vowel digraphs (vowel teams), such as ea, ee, ai, ay, oa, igh, and the final e or “Bossy E” spelling rule. Also included are songs for the diphthongs oi, oy, ou, ow, au, aw, and also the r-controlled vowels ar, er, ir, and ur. Kids with ADD, ADHD, autism, and other special needs learn particularly well with these songs because they are active, fun, and the music makes them stick in long term memory, like an “earworm” you just can’t forget! In addition to basic phonics skills, these songs promote better phonemic awareness skills and help kids develop the alphabetic principle.
