Phase 3 - Buried Treasure

• A fun decoding activity that motivates children to read words and gain useful reading practice. • Children identify and sort gold coins into nonsense and real words, enhancing their phonics skills with interactive play. • Teachers will find this game enhances children's phonics skills effectively. The set includes twenty-five gold coins, featuring fifteen real words and ten made-up words, encouraging children to decode and differentiate between them. • Aligned with the Year 1 English curriculum, this game helps children apply phonic knowledge to decode words and blend sounds. It improves reading fluency by teaching them to respond quickly to graphemes for over 40 phonemes. The game also aids in recognising common exception words and unusual spelling-sound correspondences. It's a comprehensive tool for phonics practice and is useful for phonics screening test preparation for Year 1.
