How the UptoSix Phonics Programm Works?
The UptoSix Phonics Apps follow the synthetic phonics approach.
Synthetic phonics begins with explicitly teaching isolated sound-letter relationships and then blending sounds to make words. To spell, children learn to segment a word into its individual sounds.
As the name suggests, synthetic phonics requires children to synthesise sounds to make words.
It is important that from the beginning, children be taught how to write letters with proper formation. Wrong-writing habits are very difficult to get rid of.
- An animation demonstrates how to write a letter with proper formation.
- Children can watch and try writing with a finger or with a stylus.
- No auto-correction unlike other apps.
Games for concept reinforcement and assessment




Pre-Reading and Pre-Spelling Games
Identifying a word’s beginning and ending sounds prepares children for spelling. These games help develop listening skills. There is a huge database of words that gives children endless practice.




Blending and Segmenting
Children leaen to read by blending the individual sounds of a word. Like the sounds /s/-/a/-/t/ are blended to read ‘sat’.
To Spell, Children learn to segment a words into the individual sounds. Like ‘sat’ is segmented to the sounds /s/, /a/, and /t/ to spell.
Blending and segmenting are just opposite of each other.

Blending

Segmenting
To blend and segment effectively, one should be fluent with the letter sounds. And letter-sound relationships should be properly established.
The skill of blending and segmenting is not something that comes easily. Children need lots of practice to master the skills. It is like learning to swim or ride a bicycle. Once children get it, it becomes easy and spontaneous.
Then reading any unfamiliar words like ‘daffodil’, ‘hippopotamus’, ‘antiseptic’ or ‘grandad’ becomes effortless.
Blending and segmenting skills should be practised together. It helps children understand the mechanisms of reading and spelling.
Reading Phrases
As children master the skill of blending, they progress from reading words to reading phrases.
