Explicit Systematic Phonics

Use these slideshows to explicitly teach phonemic awareness and phonics in a systematic order. The lessons include phonemic awareness activities, decodable text stories, regular review of past skills, and dictation practice. 

Note: This page is actively being developed! In fact, I haven't shared it with many people yet. If you are one of the few who know about this page, feel free to check out what I'm working on, but be aware that the resources here are under construction. I plan to complete these by the end of summer 2021.
