Jolly Phonics Group 1

Free Jolly Phonics Group 1 worksheets (s, a, t, i, p, n) According to Oxford Dictionary, phonics is a "method of teaching people to read by correlating sounds with symbols in an alphabetic writing system". In simple words, each letter of the alphabet has a sound. Instead of teaching young children the names of these alphabets, the sounds are taught. For example "a" makes the sound /a/...this is exactly the sound that comes from your mouth in the beginning when you say the word " apple " or " ant ". The letter "a" makes a different sound in words like " arm " and " ate " but these rules are taught later.  Jolly Phonics is a synthetic phonics system where all the letters of the alphabet have been split into seven groups. Each group contains 6 letters or their combinations so a total of 42 sounds are taught. What do I mean by a combination of letters? Remember that the combination of letters "s" and "h&

Read and Write about Summers

Hello friends, The summer season is at its peak in the Northern Hemisphere. In tropical regions, it is raining frequently. Children are home from school and it is a good time to polish their reading comprehension skills. Hence, I decided to make these read-and-write worksheets on the topic of summer-related things. I hope your children will have fun reading these simple, short passages and then, answering questions. These worksheets are perfect for grade 1-2 aged children. I am giving a high-quality PDF file link below. Just download PDF, print on A4 size, and use the worksheets with your students or children. If you like doing worksheets with your children, then as a parent I would personally recommend purchasing an inktank printer such as  HP Smart -Tank 6001  Wireless Cartridge-Free all-in-one printer. There are no cartridges just ink bottles and believe me, we have been using the printer constantly for the last 3 years with no refills. I am in love with how economical and efficient

Hello everyone, I am back with some more Mental Math practice worksheets but this time in the form of flashcards. I know that I have already uploaded worksheets for single-digit addition and subtraction that correspond to Class #1 and Class #2 of my Mental Math Classes on my YouTube Channel but I believe that more practice is needed. Single Digit addition or single digit number bonds are the basics of mental math. Almost all mental math tricks use these facts that have to be learned. So, I decided to convert them into flashcards for better learning. You know how much I love flashcards 😄; I can't stop myself from making them again and again.  So, here they are again but this time not related to Geography or Animals or Fruits but in the form of single-digit addition sums. They are again two-way. The procedure to use them is the same as my Geography or Buildings Flash Cards: How to Use: Cut out an A4 size cardboard paper or you can even recycle an empty cereal box. Cut in the mi
