Fold, play, and practise! This fun origami chatterbox is filled with alien (nonsense) words — perfect for practising sounding out and blending in preparation for the Year 1 Phonics Screening Check.

Children open the flaps to reveal an alien word to read aloud. A playful, hands-on way to build decoding confidence with tricky words that follow phonics rules but aren’t real!

Great for partner work, small groups, or a fun phonics challenge.
