Speech Sound Play with Phonemies: A Sound Start to KS1 for Non-Speaking, EAL & Neurodivergent Learners
10-day plan with MySpeekie® to develop speech sound awareness through Phonemies Play – before starting systematic synthetic phonics (SSP).


The Core Code
The entire alphabetic code is not taught within synthetic phonics programmes, so most children need opportunities to explore the full code to become confident readers and spellers.
What is actually covered within the Core Code?
Which grapheme-to-phoneme correspondences—GPCs—are included?
This is the Speech Sound Pics (SSP) Approach Core Code

Speech Sound Play (SSP) with Speech Sound Pics! (SSP) Approach
Children will always love SSP
This aligns with the DfE recommended GPC teaching order

Explore the WHOLE Code outside of phonics lessons.
