About Spelling, Alphabet and Phonics
GoConqr OriginalWhat this unit covers
The page sits in the Foundations and Sounds strand of English language. It starts with letter sounds and moves towards spelling rules. Most of the material is aimed at younger learners, and about a quarter suits older school students.
Start with sounds and the alphabet
For the earliest steps, open the slide set Phonics: Short vowels. It links a video, a game and a book for the short u and short a sounds. The Phonics slide set asks learners to trace S, A, T, P, I and N in the air. LEARNING PHONICS K3 pairs letters with picture words such as ant, igloo and jelly. Flashcard decks such as Phonics Group 1 and Short o (box, dog, fox, log, mop) give quick sound practice.
Move on to spelling patterns
Once sounds are secure, try these:
- Unit 2 Lesson 6 Spelling, which shows words such as smile and smiling, hop and hopping.
- Spelling - i-before-e rule, with believe, achieve and niece.
- Homophones, where learners choose between write or right, and blue or blew.
- The quiz 'ch' spellings, which asks for the correct spelling of words like chair.
Mind maps cover topics such as consonant digraphs, silent final E, syllable types and ING spelling rules. Flowcharts cover suffix rules.
Using quizzes and maps together
- Read a mind map on one rule, such as silent E.
- Take a quiz on the same rule, for example English spelling rules.
- Note the words you missed and put them into a flashcard deck.
- Retake the quiz a few days later.
Teachers can use the slide sets and decks as ready-made starters, and the quizzes as short checks.
Where to go next
Choose one sound or rule, work through a map and a quiz, then build your own flashcards for the words that stuck badly.
Frequently asked questions
Where should a young learner start?
Begin with the Phonics: Short vowels slide set, which has a video, a game and a book for the short u and short a sounds. Then try the Phonics slide set on tracing letters, and the Short o flashcard deck for simple words like dog and box.
Which quizzes cover spelling rules?
Try English spelling rules, 'ch' spellings and Adding Suffixes - Grade 3. There are also several homophone quizzes and graded spelling quizzes. Together they test patterns such as ch words, suffixes and words that sound alike.
What do the mind maps cover?
The mind maps cover consonant digraphs, silent final E, syllable types, plural spellings, ING spelling rules and the alphabet. Some are in other languages or follow a school textbook. They suit a quick read before a quiz or a flashcard session.
Are the resources free to use?
Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr. A free account also saves your quiz scores and lets you make your own quizzes, maps, flashcards and notes.
Which levels and exams do these suit?
Most resources suit primary pupils, with about a quarter for school students. Some mention Engage NY or Functional Skills English. Teachers can use the slide sets, decks and quizzes as ready-made classroom material.
What if I can't find the word list I need?
Look through the flashcard decks and sight word sets, such as Fry first 100 sight words or First Grade Dolch. If your list is not there, you can build a deck of your own and use it for practice.
