Lowercase Phonics Chips

Support early literacy development with the Lowercase Phonics Chips Set—a comprehensive phonics resource designed for hands-on learning and word-building exploration. This set includes 10 complete lowercase alphabets with a total of 346 durable plastic chips. Each chip represents a different phonetic element, including consonants, vowels, variant vowels, and digraphs, making it ideal for introducing children to a wide range of sounds in the English language. The chips are clearly printed and colour-coded to help young learners easily distinguish between phoneme types, encouraging visual recognition and supporting auditory discrimination. Perfect for foundational reading instruction, this set enables students to build real and nonsense words, practise blending and segmenting, and explore spelling patterns. Whether used in small-group work, literacy centres, or individual tasks, this set promotes meaningful and playful phonics practice. All components are safely stored in a convenient, reusable plastic container for easy organisation and portability.
