ELS: Essential Blending Books Phase 3 Class Pack
This pack contains six copies of 7 Essential Blending Books that allow children to practice and focus on the GPC’s they are learning in Phase 3 and the art of blending to read words. These books support the Knowledge Trust’s validated SSP programme, Essential Letters and Sounds (ELS), in the 2nd half of Reception’s Autumn Term and 1st half of Spring Term.
Children can practice GPC’s aloud, blend to make a word and check if they are correct by turning the page to see a pictorial representation. At the end of each book there are sentences to practice harder to read and spell words (HRSW’s).
Essential Letters and Sounds follows the progression of Letters and Sounds (2007).
