Introduction
Reading: Children are taught to read by blending the
letter sounds in regular words, for example ‘p-i-n’ is
‘pin’. This book provides words that are suitable for
blending practice, including words made using the Jolly
Phonics groups:
Group 1: ‘s, a, t, i, p, n.
Group 2: ‘c,k, e, h,r,m,d.
Group 3: ‘g, 0, u, l, f, b’.
When reading words with initial consonant blends,
children should blend the consonants first, for example
‘pl-u-m’ and not ‘p-l-u-m’.
Digraphs: In English there are over 40 letter sounds
but only 26 letters. This means that digraphs (where
two letters make one sound) are used, for example the
‘sh’ in ‘fish’. It is important for children to blend words
which contain digraphs.
Writing: The main skill for writing is being able to hear
the sounds in words and knowing how to write the
appropriate letter(s) for those sounds. ‘Dog’ is made of
‘d-o-g’, for example. Children need practice in writing
regular words. The words in the first column of each
page are particularly suitable for dictation.
Tricky words: The ‘tricky words’ are keywords that are
either phonically irregular, or difficult for children to
learn to spell. As a result, they have to be learned by
heart. Once children can read a tricky word, they will be
able to remember the spelling more easily if they repeat
the letter names as they write the word.

In Jolly Phonics children are taught to read by blending
letter sounds to form words. At the same time, they are
taught to write by identifying the sounds in words and
knowing which letters relate to these sounds.
The Jolly Phonics Word Book provides groups of words
that are helpful in teaching children to read and write.
They can be used in blending practice and dictation, as
well as in teaching ‘tricky’ words.
