Phonic refers to matching the spoken English sound with English alphabets or words. For Example, it is very important to understand and identify the sounds of a, b, c, d, ac, ba, da, and likewise. When you teach children phonic skills, it serves as a foundation for their language learning.

Attaining confidence in phonic skills is not a one-day job. It requires regular practice for a long time. Normal reading might help improve your kids’ phonic skills to a great degree, but phonic skills also involve learning spelling patterns so that the kids can improve their memorizing skills. 

Second grade is a fun and exciting time for kids. It's the time when they begin their alphabet and sound journey. In this grade, they learn different words and the kind of sounds they make. 

Fun Ways to Teach Phonics

Finding fun in learning is one of the best ways to learn for kids. It promotes intellectual development, cognitive process, and early learning among first-time learners. Children love to learn by exploring themselves. Allowing them to play conceptual games themselves will boost their independent thinking and nurture their imagination at the same time. 

Timing is everything - Learning Phonics Skills for 2nd Graders

It is very important to understand the time before you jump on directly in improving your kids’ phonic skills. Make sure that you follow the points given below to know more about how to time your kids’ phonic skills correctly - 

  1. Begin slowly and gradually. Try to teach your kids the alphabet and the sound of the same slowly. It is very important to give them proper time so that every concept gets a minimum of 1 week.
  2. Practise is important. Try to go for more & more language practicing skills so that the child can grasp them as soon as possible. Make sure that creative and out of box practicing skills keep the child engaged and curious at the same time.
  3. Revision is equally important so that the child doesn't miss the previously taught lessons. Commonly, the little learner can easily forget the previous chapters if not given proper attention. 

Supporting the little one

Supporting your little one is very important in his/her early years. Children always look up to their parents or teachers. Kindergarten teachers are the first teachers in their life, and thus they hold special relevance towards them. 

Children also love to imitate older kids and follow them closely. Thus, it is very important to allow that space and give due time to the kids so that they can learn from them by observing them minutely.
