Learning in spiral













                                              Building on the identification of the 44 principal sounds
                                             in English, we learn how to form and read words. In this
                                           way we guide children in a process of learning that combines the
                                          mechanics of reading with authentic comprehension, transforming
                                         them into autonomous readers.
                                       Each sound is presented with an action and a jingle, which help to recall
                                       the sound and letter (or letters) that represent it.
                                       as learners learn to isolate and recognise all 44 sounds, and to associate
                                       these sounds to their written transcription, they become equipped to
                                       pronounce them, join them together, and therefore begin to read.
                                        Little by little, Yo-yo Phonics helps children understand words and play
                                         with them, beginning with language  that they are already familiar with
                                          and moving on to new vocabulary presented in meaningful contexts.
