Jolly Phonics Word Bank

Jolly Phonics has some excellent resources and the good news is that one of their best things is free!

It is the Jolly Phonics word bank which you can download and print for free from their site HERE.

This list is fantastic, looking at it you can soon understand why the Jolly Phonics system teaches from s,a,t,i,p,n rather than a,b,c,d,e,f,g because even only knowing six letters you can read and write a surprising number of words.

Here is my Youtube video on how to use it!

It shows you all the words you can spell using the phonics.

It builds the words they can read and write only using the letters they have learned so far.

The words on the left are more common and easier.

The words on the right are less common and harder.

I highlighted words in pink. I find these words more useful.

Here I highlighted "chopsticks"... I live in Japan so chopsticks is an important word for my students. But maybe you don`t use chopsticks in your country, so you don`t need to highlight it.

This is just a guide.... But I hope it helps somebody.

Please change it to your own needs!

Wow! That is a lot of words!

Here the standard spelling changes and we get into alternative spellings.

For the basic sounds my Youtube video should help.

Thank you and good luck with you or your child's English.
