Jolly Finger Phonics 6 Pdf Free Download

The Finger Phonics books introduce young children to all of the letter sounds, not just the alphabet. The teaching in these books is multisensory. Each letter sound is introduced with an action and a large cut-out letter, which helps little fingers to feel the correct formation. Fun activities at the end of each book help children to use their new letter- sound knowledge and begin to develop their reading and writing skills.
Finger Phonics Books 1-7 (in print letters) is the complete set of 7 books covering all the 42 letter sounds. Each of these 14-page board books deal with one group of letter sounds. A fun action is given for every letter sound. Cut-out letters on each page show childrens fingers the correct formation for every letter. Also included at the end of each book are a number of activities that children can complete to reinforce their letter sound skills.
Bit confused as I'm used to just doing initial letter sounds with DD1 (3y) so far - 'buh for boat' etc. Also the pictures are so busy, often with stuff that seems to have no relation to the sounds in question, and I'm sure there must be a reason for this.
Looked on the jolly phonics website, most of the resources seem to be for teachers - I just need a basic introduction to the principles - ? I've no idea about phonics at all really.
I got the video, too - DD1 not deeply impressed - can't say I was either to be honest.
Talk about the pictures and enoy them. It improves language skills. Don't worry too much about teaching formal reading.
When your child is older they might look for object that start with a particular letter sound in a picture. The pages for "b" has a bicyle, a bat, a ball, a baby, a boat, a band, a bee, birds, bubbles, boys, bushes, bottles, a bunny rabbit, a box, a bridge, the girl is wearing a bow in her hair, the tree has branches the old woman is carrying a bag.
Jolly phonics also encourages children to listen to sounds in words as well as at the begining. For example the word "crab" has the "b" sound at the end and the "a" sound in the middle.
Your little girl is still very young and learns best through play. There are loads of phonic games I can suggest if you are interested.
