Jolly Discoveries strives to work with teachers and children in continuing to promote ongoing literacy education. The teaching of reading and writing through a synthetic phonics approach has been the driving force of the Jolly Discoveries team throughout Australia and other countries around the world.
Teachers themselves can discover a synthetic phonics approach to assist children with the reading and writing process through the Jolly Discoveries app called ‘Phonics Under the Big Top’. School based training courses are also offered in the Jolly Phonics and Jolly Grammar Programs.
Phonics Under the Big Top is a fun, interactive and exciting phonics program that introduces children to the 42 phonemes (letter sounds) of the English language. Children are provided with the opportunity to play lots of colourful, graded games that teach and reinforce the phonemes (letter sounds) of our English language.
Phonics Under the Big Top iPad and Android Apps adopt a synthetic approach to learning phonics. This is the current method of phonics teaching being used throughout the world! Each phoneme is taught using a basic code of phonics. The children are shown the most common way each phoneme appears in a word. Phonics Under the Big Top has been written by a phonics expert from the Jolly Discoveries literacy teaching team.
Phonics Under the Big Top Advanced follows on from the first app produced called Phonics Under the Big Top. In a fun, very interactive way it teaches children the more advanced skills of phonics.
