ELS: Essential Blending Books Phase 5 Class Pack

Six copies of six Essential Blending Books that help children to focus on the GPC’s they are learning as well as practice the skill of blending to make words. They support the Knowledge Trust’s validated SSP programme, Essential Letters and Sounds (ELS), Summer Term 2, introducing Phase 5.

Children can practice the GPC’s aloud, blend them to make a word and check if they are correct by turning the page to see a graphic representation.  At the end of each book there are sentences to practice harder to read and spell words (HRSW’s).
