🗣️ How to Say Phonic Sounds Correctly! 🗣️

Getting the right sound for each letter is key to helping kids master reading and spelling! Here are some tips to make sure you’re saying those phonics sounds correctly:

1️⃣ Say the Sound, Not the Letter Name:

• For example:

• a = /æ/ (as in “apple”)

• b = /b/ (as in “bat”)

• c = /k/ (as in “cat”)

• Keep it short and crisp, avoid saying the letter name!

2️⃣ Use Pure Sounds (No Extra Sounds!):

• Say the sound cleanly without adding extra vowels or sounds.

• Example: “t” should sound like /t/ (not “tuh”).

3️⃣ Focus on Consistency:

• Make sure you say the sounds the same way every time. Consistency is key for helping kids hear and understand phonics sounds clearly!

4️⃣ Model Slow and Clear Sounds:

• Especially when you’re first introducing a sound, make it slow and clear to help kids hear the difference between similar sounds (like /b/ and /d/).

💡 Why It Matters:

Getting the phonics sounds right helps kids decode words and builds a strong foundation for reading!
