Benefits of children learning systematic synthetic phonics

It is essential that children learn systematic phonics as by doing so, they will acquire a solid foundation in reading, writing and pronouncing the English language.


Phonics improves children’s literacy skills and enrich their knowledge at an early age. Children who learn English with systematic phonics are more advanced in reading words than children who did not study systematic phonics. Children who have studied with our explicit phonics instruction are able to read any kind of young learner text or book fluently, accurately and confidently.


They have more motivation for reading a book till the end than children who learned with traditional methods such as “look and say” or “recitation”. Children who have phonics knowledge can read longer sentences, even with unfamiliar words whereas children who learn reading by recitation or by the look and say method will only know the words in the given text or book, and every word from outside the studied text will need to be taught.


Research has shown that children who learn English with systematic phonics can read about anything and they have higher reading scores than children who learn English in other ways.


Specific benefits of learning systematic phonics include:


Recognizing words:

Learning by hearing the sounds and seeing the associated letters together make it easy for children to recognize words.


Spelling words:

Children are taught that letters and sounds are related to each other. Therefore they write the letters with the knowledge of their associated sounds. This method helps children spelling the words right. As soon as children know a few letter sounds, they can start blending words. Blending and segmenting words makes children spell words correctly. Teachers/parents will boost their spelling and writing skills by dictating letter sounds, words and sentences.


Unfamiliar words:

Children learn blending words with both individual letter sounds and digraph sounds. This strategy makes children to read unfamiliar words.


General knowledge:

Systematic phonics help children to read faster. The earlier they can read, the more their general knowledge is developed.


Independent readers:

By learning with phonics instruction, children are able to read fluently and appropriately much faster. Many words in the English language follow phonics rules. Most of the time, when children know the phonics sounds and their associated letters, they can read their books alone, without parent assistance. They become confident and independent readers.


Achievement:

Children who learned reading and writing with an effective phonics program become very active and faster learners. They have higher scores not only in English but also in other subjects.
