English Phonics is an Ipad-based reading system that caters for beginner and struggling readers. Based on a synthetic phonics approach, our system concentrates on building sound awareness (phonemic awareness) and letter/sound knowledge (phonics).
Our system is ideal for teachers, or for parents wishing to take an active role in their child’s learning journey. In addition to iPad apps, we provide free printable worksheets and example lesson plans.
A fun and effective introduction to phonics. Ideal for toddlers and preschoolers who are showing signs of interest in reading.
