<< Using Phonics To Teach Your Child To Read  Phonemic Awareness >>

In the next post you will see more about our online reading course. In order to use our free phonics worksheets correctly, a major part of the course, you need to download some fonts onto your computer. If you sign up to the newsletter to receive the free phonics worksheets you will be told how to use them. But if you are thinking of signing up you should also download them just in case. They are also very useful for producing your own worksheets at home as these are the fonts that look most like the handwriting that children are taught to use.

Anyway you can download the attached files here. When you click on them they will invite you to save onto your computer. Do it into your fonts folder but sign up for the newsletter (Which will pop up on leaving the site) for more info of what to do with them;

National Primary Font The first standard font we use.

National First Font The second standard font we use.

National First Font Dotted This is the dotted font you will use with your child when writing the letters.

  1. Nicola Erlich Said,

    This is brilliant. I love the fonts. I have to admit to having been a little bit slack on working with the kids this summer but there is still time.

    Can I ask, what expectations you should have for what age? Its hard to know if you should be just praising them for doing a great job when they are only little and starting learning to write, or if you should be pushing them to be neater at this early stage?

    Again, thank you for creating this website.

  2. Nicola Erlich Said,

    Hi I have another comment to make (sorry).

    I am all set with the National Primary font but I wondered if you know if it is the same font as they teach in Spanish schools? If not, what is the font that they use in Spanish schools?

    I think it is important to not confuse them and use two different fonts when they are just learning to write.

    Thanks

    Nicky

    Hi Nicola
    Lynne will get back to you later today with answers. On the second point the Spanish one is different in general but she will explain more how to distinguish later.

    Thanks for the comments

    Regards
    Graham
