Matching beginning sounds one tile at a time
The Learning Can Be Fun Beginning Sounds Dominoes, supplier code EVLBSD, is a domino game built around 20 beginning sounds, with colourful and phonetically correct illustrations.
Learning Can Be Fun describes phonemic awareness of beginning sounds as a key skill for beginner readers. The supplier says the 20 sounds in this easy-to-play game help lay foundations for phonics education and support young learners to recognise beginning sounds. Learning Can Be Fun notes there are a variety of ways to play with dominoes, and suggests a simple matching game for beginners to encourage observational skills and help develop communication and social skills.
Each match asks a child to hear the first sound of a picture and find its partner, which keeps the focus on listening. Playing in pairs or small groups also brings in turn taking and talk about why two tiles go together.
Bring it out for phonics groups or paired play at home. Beginning sounds snap and bingo are listed separately. Browse educational games, the Learning Can Be Fun range, teacher resources and educational supplies.
