Reading Rods® Alphabet & Phonemic Awareness

Reading rods aid letter recognition, isolating and blending sounds, rhyming, and CVC words.

Overview

  • Reading rods are colour-coded, blue for consonants and red for vowels, with orientation dots for b and d.

  • Children need engaging tools to enhance their phonics skills. Reading rods help isolate and blend sounds, recognise syllables, rhyme, and identify beginning and ending sounds, fostering early literacy development. Benefits include tactile engagement and support for various phonological awareness activities.

  • Features:

  • - 82 lowercase reading rods with a colour-coding system (blue for consonants, red for vowels)

  • - Constructed for regular classroom use

  • - Organised storage box with dividers

  • - Teacher's guide with free downloadable content

  • In Year 1, reading rods reinforce phonic knowledge for decoding words, aligning with the English curriculum's focus on phonics and word reading. For Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), the rods aid in blending sounds into words and letter recognition, essential for developing early reading skills.
