About this resource

Introducing our ‘Initial ‘e’ Sound Matching, Reading, and Writing Activity’ , thoughtfully designed for Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), Year 1, and older children with dyslexia. This resource aims to enhance phonemic awareness by focusing on words that begin with the ‘e’ sound, facilitating the development of essential literacy skills. Key Features: Phonemic Awareness Development: Engages children in identifying and practising the initial ‘e’ sound, laying a strong foundation for reading and writing. Dyslexia-Friendly Design: Incorporates multisensory techniques, such as visual aids and interactive activities, to support diverse learning needs and reinforce memory retention. Progressive Learning: Activities are structured to build confidence and competence, starting with simple matching tasks and advancing to reading and writing exercises. Inclusive Resource: Suitable for EYFS, Year 1, and older children with dyslexia, ensuring all learners can benefit from targeted phonics instruction. By integrating this resource into your educational setting, you provide children with engaging and effective tools to master the initial ‘e’ sound, supporting their journey towards literacy with confidence and enjoyment.Read more

“Matches our White Rose planning almost week for week.”

I stopped adapting things from three different sites and now start here. The odd week does not line up exactly, but the small step it covers is always somewhere in the same block.

“The editable file is why we renewed.”

Being able to change two questions for the child who joined us in January, without rebuilding the whole sheet, is worth the subscription on its own.

“Good value, and the answers are actually on it.”

Small thing, but half the free sheets online expect you to work the answers out yourself. My TA can run a group on this without a briefing first.
