I know my phonics!
If your child is not reading yet (and this is perfectly normal for this age group), just make sure that he knows all 26 of his phonics and that he still remembers them in September. Here you will
find a link to download a set of phonic cards. There are 4 cards per page.. You will need to print them out, cut them out and - if possible - laminate them.
Phonics Card Set
This is a zipped file, you will need to extract the individual files either with WinRAR or a similar program.
