Importance of Phonics Games for 1st graders

Phonics games from SplashLearn have an interactive approach to teach reading skills to your kid. It keeps them engaged and motivated for a long time with definite chances of attaining success in reading.

Most words are new for early readers, so that’s where the knowledge of letters and sounds allows them to link those unfamiliar words with the spoken language.

All of these games make reading an exciting and enjoyable experience for the kids.
This is an online reading game that builds vocabulary and improves the understanding of words at the same time.

How to Teach Phonics Games to 1st Graders?

Explicit systematic phonics is the most effective approach to teach your kid how to read properly. In this, phonics is all about teaching children the sounds made by letters and how to combine separate sounds to make one word.

Explicit phonics is directly teaching the association between letters and sounds. Meanwhile, the systematic teaching of letter-sound mappings happens with a regular increase in the level of difficulty.

Phonics games for 1st graders are taught with the explicit systematic phonics approach. These games allow the kids to listen and understand the sounds of letters or words, choose the correct sound to find words, and practice sounds to make words according to the Magic-E knowledge.

After that, the children can play games to explore words containing different letter sounds and blend them to make other words. Also, there are games for the 1st graders related to segmenting, rearranging, sequencing, and guessing the words as part of phonics.

These phonics games help a child gain the knowledge of the language to become better readers from an early age.

How to Support Your Child in Learning Phonics?

During the educational journey of a child, their parents play the biggest role in providing support and are there with them at all times. You, as a parent, have to develop a sound interpersonal relationship with your children to help them learn the phonics as per their ability.

Only a parent can schedule the daily studies of a 1st grader to complete their homework and play the phonics games.

Introduction of the phonics games for 1st graders in their study fastens the process of grasping the language efficiently. It is one of the best ways to support your child in learning the phonics needed for reading purposes.
