Practice that follows the school year

In every pack
- A4 PDF to print at home, as many times as you need for your family.
- Black-and-white friendly, so it looks right on any printer.
- A short note for you on each activity: what it practises and what to say.
- Our own illustrations and wording, clear and calm rather than busy.
- Follows the order most UK schools use. Your school's order may differ, so each pack says what to skip or save for later.
Not sure where to start?
If your child is in Reception this autumn, the free sound mat and the Phase 2 pack are the right place. If they're in Year 1, look at the Screening Check pack in the spring.

How will I buy them?
Each pack will be sold through a secure online shop as an instant PDF download. The buy buttons go live on each pack's launch date.
Are these approved by my child's school or phonics programme?
No. Phonics Unpacked isn't affiliated with any phonics programme. The packs follow the order most UK schools use, and you should always go with your school's way of saying and ordering the sounds.
Is this screen time for my child?
No. The packs are paper activities for your child. Our videos are for grown-ups, so you can say each sound the same way school does.
