"Perfect for supporting learning at home."

I have a child in reception and in year one. My child in year 1 is having some difficulties learning to read fluently. He can recognise individual sounds but he finds its tricky to recognise these in a word. Monster Phonics makes it really easy for him to recognise the sounds and he can easily read far more complicated words than usual. We had noticed his confidence was being affected by the fact he could see other kids reading more fluently. Monster Phonics books have really started to change that for him. He feels confident and pleased he can read the book through. The colour coding just clicks for him in a way that other systems hadn’t before.

Both kids ask to use the app and love the common word power points. This has helped them change from being reluctant readers to being excited to try.

Website has tons of great resources and printouts that can be done at home.

"I am so delighted I found this program…"

I am so delighted I found this program - something I will remember dearly from this pandemic lockdown! My son really enjoys the books, he would reach out to them on his own and read out for himself. He loves the monster characters and his only complaint was that Miss Oh No was featured only once (in our level book series). We all LOVE Miss Oh No song! Thank you so much for putting all this together.

"A fantastic resource"

We implemented Monster Phonics a couple of years ago and saw an instant improvement in children's phonics. This has translated over time into substantial improvements in reading and spelling.
The children love the characters and our teachers love how easy it is to plan and adjust lessons - an all rounder winner!

"A great resource."

We've been using Monster Phonics since October and are seeing the children really getting to grips with all the"tricky" spellings/sounds.
We had the official training last week and it was really helpful to see the overview of resources and research that underpins the program. Thank you Ingrid for a very engaging session.

"Phonics in Year 1"

We've been using Monster Phonics with Year 1 since October 2019. The children can quickly grasp the colour coded concept for different sounds and begin to see and apply the rules in other words they see outside Phonics lessons. ("That's got Angry A in the word" or "There's a Ghost sound in that word") .

"New Monster Phonics school"

We started to use Monster Phonics at our school in September 2019 and are really starting to embed it. We are loving it so far!
This scheme is so different to the others out there and this is what grabbed us when researching a new direction. There is so much planning to use and choose from and all resources are thought about. There is a display section full of bright and colourful graphics. They have though of everything!
The colours, the monsters and the songs all engage the children and they discuss their love of the characters throughout the day.
I'm so glad we found this brilliant resource.
Ingrid could not be more helpful and the training she provided engaged and enthused our staff.
I can't wait to see the progress our children will make using Monster Phonics!

"So far so good..."

We have been using Monster Phonics since Sept 2019 and are so far really impressed with it's impact. It has made lessons more engaging and interactive and early signs are that the children are making good progress as a result. It seems to complement letters and sounds really well and I know the teachers really value the support it offers and planning and teaching.

"The Monster phonics programme has…helped consistency"

The Monster phonics programme has helped with consistency in our school . Teachers are able to spend more time with the children delivering each sound rather than spending long periods of time planning. The display element has also helped as this has allowed me create a corridor display- each monster is displayed. Each day children are given time to place the flashcards around the monsters. A great resource that I would recommend to other schools.

"Brillant Programme for boosting attainment and a love of reading"

We have been using Monster Phonics since September 2019 and impact has been amazing! Our Staff love the pedagogy behind the Monster Phonics programme and the enthusiasm in our children has been wonferful to witness.

We have taken the programme on board fully and have invested in the new reading scheme attached to it. The books are lovely and unlike other phonetically decodable scheme these books (especially the Reception books) are lovely to engage parents into their child's learning. The layout has clearly been well thought out and supports our SEND children who have Visual impairments. The text size and font used in the Reception books has meant that specialist books with enlarged print have not been needed.

The biggest impact has been on our boys and the bottom 20% of all the cohorts within eyfs and ks1.

We also use the programme as an intervention in KS2 for those children who did not pass the phonics screening re-sit in year 2 and for children who lack confidence in reading.
