What is pure phonics? Is this on the DVD?

Yes you can see a sample of a range of the activities used in the programme including the use of pure phonics. Pure phonics is very important to Salley and has since been advocated by the synthetic phonics approach. It basically means that the sound needs to retain as many of its properties as possibleeg “p” is a short voiceless sound as against “z” for example which is long and voiced. However it it critical that “p” is not pronounced as “puh”.
 

Children need to learn all the phonic sounds as pure sounds - it’s very important that you don’t add an intrusive uh to the end of consonant sounds as this is basically putting another sound in which then makes breaking down and building up, decoding and encoding very difficult.
