Phonics Magnets

Giant Phonics Magnets are a vibrant and versatile classroom resource designed to help children build a deep understanding of phonics and word construction. This extensive 84-piece magnetic set includes consonants, vowels, digraphs, changeable vowels, r-controlled vowels, and magic e vowels-each colour-coded for easy recognition and effective learning. The large size of the letters makes them ideal for use on magnetic whiteboards or other surfaces during whole-class instruction, small group work, or interactive phonics lessons. Each letter type is designed to help students explore how sounds combine and change within words, allowing for the creation of simple to complex word structures. The colour-coded system supports the identification of different phoneme types and encourages the development of early spelling, blending, and segmenting skills. These foam magnets are not only highly tactile and visually stimulating but also promote kinaesthetic learning, catering to a variety of learning styles. Suitable for learners aged 4 and up, Giant Phonics Magnets are an essential addition to any literacy program, helping to break down the building blocks of language in a clear and engaging way.
