Initial Code vs Initial Sounds Bubbles

The official app for the Sounds-Write Initial Code phonics programme, for learning to read and spell in English. ******* IPAD ONLY ******* This app is currently unavailable on the iPhone because of the writing element of the app. For young children to become fluent readers and spellers they need to rehearse and consolidate what they are learning. It is this, repeated over and over again, that enables their access to alphabetic code knowledge and skills to become totally automatic and internalised processes. This app offers a variety of activities to develop the skills of blending and segmenting, sound spelling correspondence, word reading and writing and some sentences reading and writing. The app has been designed to introduce all the sound-spelling correspondences your child(ren) needs to learn to put them well on the way to learning to read and write. Each unit will be locked until the child has completed enough of the current unit to be able to progress. For more information on the Sounds-Write programme please visit www.sounds-write.co.uk

These app games develop children’s confidence as they use early phonics skills and match letters to words. The interactive activities are appealing and fun to play in a variety of ways. Players are challenged to match the initial letter sound on a pebble and find the four-word pictures to match. Games can be played with or without audio. An animated reward appears when all four are correct with no errors. All letters of the alphabet are covered and further integrated activities can be played with lower and upper case Alphabet Pebbles. FEATURES - Identify the letter in the middle of the screen using visual and audio cues - Use similar clues to burst the bubbles containing words with the matching initial letter - Use settings to manage the letters available - A Read Me file with guidance on other ways to support the development of literacy skills - No third-party advertising - No in-app purchases.
