Developmental sequence: The activities in the three Nelson Phonics workbooks follow the developmental progression of phonological awareness in early years.
Nelson Phonics Workbooks
Written for early years students, Nelson Phonics addresses the four essential skills they need in order to read and spell: phonological awareness, letter–sound (phonics) relationships, visual (graphological) processing and spelling. Nelson Phonics helps students develop an explicit understanding of the relationships between the 26 letters of the alphabet and the individual sounds that make up the English language.
