My teaching aims…
By the end of this session I want my students to be able to:
- Understand why synthetic phonics are taught in bilingual
schools in Spain.
- Distinguish and pronounce the different sounds of the
alphabetic code correctly.
- Understand, use and teach the alphabetic code.
- Be more interested in and confident about teaching
synthetic phonics.
- Use the ideas and resources from this session in their
classes.

Starting points…
• How much do you already know about synthetic
phonics? QUIZ
• Why are you doing this course? What do you
want or need to learn from it?
(Be honest please!)

A (very) Short History of Synthetic
Phonics
• Alphabetic method (names of the letters in
alphabetical order)
• Look and say or Whole Word Method
(repetition and memorisation)
• One, two, three and away!

Synthetic Phonics
• In the UK it started to become popular in
the 1980-90s.
• It was brought to Spain with the British
Council / MEC Bilingual project.

phonics programs?
3. What’s his strategy?

So… Now we know the
theory, let’s start with the
practice.
![Page 10: Synthetic Phonics For CLIL Teachers (very) Short History of Synthetic Phonics •Alphabetic method (names of the letters in alphabetical order) •Look and say or Whole Word Method](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051307/5ab3fe0d7f8b9a7c5b8b57d1/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
So what is Synthetic Phonics???
• Synthetic Phonics uses the
concept of 'synthesising', which
means 'putting together' or
'blending'. Simply put, the sounds
prompted by the letters are
synthesised (put together or
blended) to pronounce the word.
![Page 11: Synthetic Phonics For CLIL Teachers (very) Short History of Synthetic Phonics •Alphabetic method (names of the letters in alphabetical order) •Look and say or Whole Word Method](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051307/5ab3fe0d7f8b9a7c5b8b57d1/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

How it works – The 5 basic skills
(Jolly Phonics program)
• 1. Learning the letter sounds
• 2. Learning letter formation
• 3. Blending
• 4. Identifying the sounds in words (Segmenting)
• 5.Tricky words

Well… Synthetic phonics is
similar.
• Instead of symbols, pictures are used to
teach the main phonemes (sounds) of the
English language.
• These pictures are supported by a story, a
song and an action. This is a MULTI-
SENSORY approach that caters for
different learning styles and multiple
intelligences.

1.1 Learning Letter Sounds
![Page 18: Synthetic Phonics For CLIL Teachers (very) Short History of Synthetic Phonics •Alphabetic method (names of the letters in alphabetical order) •Look and say or Whole Word Method](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051307/5ab3fe0d7f8b9a7c5b8b57d1/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
In what order should we teach
the sounds?
![Page 19: Synthetic Phonics For CLIL Teachers (very) Short History of Synthetic Phonics •Alphabetic method (names of the letters in alphabetical order) •Look and say or Whole Word Method](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051307/5ab3fe0d7f8b9a7c5b8b57d1/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Before we can teach, first
we need to learn the
sounds.
• To do this we need to
familarize ourselves with the
Alphabetic code…
![Page 20: Synthetic Phonics For CLIL Teachers (very) Short History of Synthetic Phonics •Alphabetic method (names of the letters in alphabetical order) •Look and say or Whole Word Method](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051307/5ab3fe0d7f8b9a7c5b8b57d1/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Why is it important to learn the
sounds correctly?• Young children can identify and repeat
sounds more accurately. This will help
their pronunciation. Remember that there
are many more phonemes in English than
in Spanish.
• For this method to work at higher levels,
it’s important to be able to match
graphemes with their correct sounds.

1.2 Teaching Letter Sounds
• The stories (Jolly Phonics, Yo Yo Phonics)
• Realia
• The songs
• Names with the letters
• Words they already know (You can accept Spanish words too)
• I spy
• Pairs game
• Art and crafts
• Music and movement
• Worksheets / Workbooks
![Page 24: Synthetic Phonics For CLIL Teachers (very) Short History of Synthetic Phonics •Alphabetic method (names of the letters in alphabetical order) •Look and say or Whole Word Method](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051307/5ab3fe0d7f8b9a7c5b8b57d1/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Practising the letter sounds
• Allow plenty of time.
• Vary the activities.
• Make it fun – children don’t like drilling.
• Encourage autonomy (corners, peer and
self assessment)

Goodbye!(Now can you write that with Jolly Phonics
symbols? And how could you teach your pupils
to spell it? How would they spell it?)
