Exploring Phonics and Spelling: Fun Learning for Nursery 1 Kids! 📚✏️

Learning Phonics Sounds

In Nursery 1, we are learning about different phonics sounds that letters make. Let’s explore some common sounds together:

1. A as in Apple
   • The letter ‘A’ sounds like “ah” in words like “apple.”
2. B as in Ball
   • The letter ‘B’ sounds like “buh” in words like “ball.”
3. C as in Cat
   • The letter ‘C’ sounds like “kuh” in words like “cat.”
4. D as in Dog
   • The letter ‘D’ sounds like “duh” in words like “dog.”
5. E as in Elephant
   • The letter ‘E’ sounds like “eh” in words like “elephant.”

Simple Spelling Practice

Let’s practice some simple spelling combinations:

1. I + f = If
   • When we put ‘I’ and ‘f’ together, we spell “if.”
2. O + n = On
   • Combining ‘O’ and ‘n’ spells “on.”
3. B + y = By
   • ‘B’ and ‘y’ together make the word “by.”
4. N + o = No
   • Putting ‘N’ and ‘o’ together forms the word “no.”
5. T + o = To
   • ‘T’ and ‘o’ spell the word “to.”

Learning phonics sounds and simple spellings helps us read and write words better. Let’s practice saying and writing these sounds and words every day to become excellent readers and writers!
