    $0.00 including GST

    In this free video modelling resource, we introduce high frequency grapheme-phoneme correspondences (GPCs) following a sequence aligned with the popular Sounds Write synthetics phonics program. We introduce the GPCs in small groups, starting with <a, i, m, s, t>. 

    Each video includes a model, followed by a grapheme review to check for knowledge and recall. Each subsequent video builds on the last by introducing a new group of sounds, and then reviewing all sounds previously introduced.
