StoryTime Phonics Scheme

StoryTime Phonics

A fresh and joyful approach to phonics and now more affordable!

StoryTime Phonics is a fully immersive classroom experience for Early Years & KS1 children that teaches phonics following the Letters & Sounds Framework. It is the antidote to dry phonics learning.

Structured, planned and systematic, yet fun, creative and adaptable – is it possible to have all of this in one phonics programme? YES! StoryTime Phonics is a holistic, whole class approach to learning to read. Its joyful, yet systematic approach uses real stories to contextualise the phonemes, ensuring high level engagement right from the start. All 44 sounds are covered, as well as alternative graphemes – everything from the beginning of reception to the end of year1.

How does it work? Each sound is introduced by the Phonic Fairy as she flies into a carefully chosen and well-loved book. She reads the story in a beautifully produced video.Children learn and practise the Caption Action linked to each story. Daily lesson plans are full of engaging activities for all types of learners at all levels. They follow the Letters and Sounds format and are linked to the story or stories. High Frequency Words are systematically introduced by phase within each lesson and regularly reviewed over the weeks that follow. The Tricky Troll likes to get involved and ‘help’ children with his Tricky Words! Talking Bookmarks are full of carefully thought out discussion points to aid deeper comprehension. Children will want to re-visit the stories and videos again and again. Teachers can use any of the filmed lessons to see exactly how a session might be organised. The films quickly demonstrate how the programme and works, as well as how much fun the lessons can be.
