Beginning sounds A–Z phonics resource using real photos to support phonemic awareness, letter sound recognition and early reading skills.

This comprehensive alphabet resource is designed for early years, SEN learners and students who benefit from clear, concrete visual supports. Each letter of the alphabet includes four carefully selected real-life images that represent strong initial sounds.

The vocabulary has been chosen to avoid confusing blends and unclear sound patterns, making it ideal for structured phonics teaching and students working on IEP targets related to letter sounds.

What is included:

• All 26 letters A–Z
• 4 real-photo picture cards per letter
• Clear focus on initial sounds
• Simple, familiar vocabulary
• Versions with labels and without labels
• Printable format for classroom or intervention use

This resource can be used for:

• Phonics lessons
• Small group intervention
• 1:1 SEN support
• Speech and language sessions
• Literacy centres
• Matching and sorting activities
• Independent work tasks

Real photographs help learners generalise sound recognition to real-world objects — particularly beneficial for pupils with autism or communication difficulties.

Ideal for Reception, KS1, early readers and SEN settings.
