Research shows that the progress made by children using Jolly Phonics far
exceeds that of children not taught using a synthetic phonics approach.
Reading and spelling ages of children who have used Jolly Phonics for one year
are a year above their chronological age. Jolly Phonics is effective across the
ability range, with boys doing just as well as girls, while those with English as
their second language can do as well as children who have it as their first.
“
The step-by-step method takes the
fear out of reading and children love
learning the songs and actions. I have
seen an incredible improvement in
children’s reading ability throughout
the year. Jolly Phonics works by
making reading and writing fun and
“
accessible for all children.

Programme overview
Jolly Phonics is amazing for the children to learn letter sounds
and help pronounce words to take them onto the next stage of
“
their speech and language.
Jolly Phonics continues throughout the school years, by extending the earlier phonics teaching with further
spelling, grammar and punctuation concepts. Each year of teaching provides continuous revision and consolidation
of topics taught in previous years. This enables children to spell and punctuate more accurately, use a wider
vocabulary and have a clear understanding of how language works.

Programme progression example Phonics
Phonics year
Children learn the /ai/ sound and practice blending
and segmenting <ai> words: for example, ‘rain’,
‘sail’, ‘snail’. Once the 42 letters sounds are secure,
the alternatives can be introduced for reading.
With regular blending practice, the children become
familiar with the alternatives, making it easier for
them to choose the correct spellings later on.
Grammar 1
Teaches the main alternatives of /ai/ for spelling:
<a_e> and <ay>. Children are taught one spelling
per lesson. Each lesson has a spelling list of 10
words, including 4 /ai/ words.
Grammar 1
Grammar 2
Revises the main ways to write /ai/: <ai>, a_e> and
<ay>. Children have to choose the right alternative Grammar 2
to spell words correctly. Children learn that /ai/ can
also be written as <ei> and <eigh>. Both lessons
have a spelling list of 10 words, including 6 /ai/
words.
Grammar 3
Revises the main ways to write /ai/: <ai>, a_e> and
<ay>. Children learn that /ai/ can also be written as
the vowel <a>. Both lessons have a spelling list of
18 words, including 6 /ai/ words.
Grammar 4
Grammar 3
Children learn that the vowel sounds in unstressed
syllables are often swallowed and become neutral
(the schwa). This includes the /ai/ sound in words
like ‘private’ and ‘abominable’. Grammar 4
Grammar 5
Children learn that a swallowed vowel sound does
not always become a neutral schwa, but sometimes
says /i/ instead. For example, the spelling patterns
<age> at the end of the words is usually unstressed
and say /ij/ rather than /aij/ or /uhj/, as in ‘village’,
‘cottage’ and ‘sausage’.
Grammar 6
Revises the <ei> and <eigh> spellings for /ai/, using
longer words and more sophisticated vocabulary: Grammar 5
for example, ‘freight’ and ‘surveillance’. Children
also learn that these spellings can be used for
other sounds, such as /ee/, /ie/, /i/ and /e/, as in
‘ceiling’, ‘height’ and ‘feisty’ and ‘counterfeit’ Grammar 6

“This year we introduced Phonics Buddies. These are pairings of an older child,
such as a child from year 6, and a younger child, who work together with Jolly
Phonics Extra. The older child is asked to help the younger child, but in practice,
both of them might be struggling. With Phonics Buddies they both benefit by
working together. The three year 6 children are genuinely very impressed with
Jolly Phonics Extra. It has given them a real sense of responsibility and involvement
