Green Phonogram Series in a child's hands
The green series, the phonogram reading series, in eight sections covering long a, i, o, u and e, then sh, ch, th, wh, then ar, ir, or, ur and the two sounds of oo. It runs from sorting the sounds through to reading whole sentences and books, so the same set carries a child from hearing a phonogram to reading with it. Durable plastic cards, pre-cut with rounded corners.
Phonemic Awareness
Strengthens understanding of complex sound patterns and phonogram relationships, essential for decoding unfamiliar words independently.
Reading Fluency
Progressive difficulty builds automatic recognition of common phonograms, increasing reading speed and comprehension through familiar patterns.
Vocabulary Expansion
Words within phonogram families introduce new vocabulary, enriching the child's understanding of language.
Independent Learning
Self-correcting design allows children to work autonomously, building confidence and internal motivation for reading challenges.
How to present it
Arrange phonogram cards in order of difficulty on a quiet workspace. Have the moveable alphabet ready for word-building activities.
- 1Introduce the phonogram sound using the three-period lesson, showing the card and saying the sound clearly
- 2Have the child trace the phonogram while repeating the sound, then find matching words from the picture cards
- 3Use the moveable alphabet to build words containing the phonogram, starting with simple three-letter words
- 4Progress to word completion exercises where the child fills in missing phonograms in partially completed words
3 tips for parents
- Create phonogram hunts during daily activities - look for 'sh' sounds in shopping or 'ch' sounds during lunch preparation
- Read aloud books that contain the phonograms your child is studying, pausing to point out familiar patterns
- Celebrate progress with specific praise: 'You read that 'igh' sound perfectly!' rather than general comments

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Phonogram Reading Series (Green) appropriate for my 4-year-old who just started reading?
The Green series is designed for children ages 3-6 who have mastered basic phonetic reading and are ready for more complex phonogram patterns. If your child can confidently read simple three-letter phonetic words, they're likely ready for this advanced series. The systematic progression helps build confidence with challenging digraphs and blends.
Can I use the Phonogram Reading Series (Green) effectively at home, or is it designed only for classrooms?
This series works beautifully in both home and classroom environments. The systematic approach allows you to follow your child's natural pace, making it ideal for one-to-one home teaching while maintaining the authentic Montessori progression.
What are the cards made of, and will they stand up to daily use?
The cards are made of durable plastic, pre-cut with rounded corners, so they stand up to repeated handling in the classroom or at home.
How should I present the phonogram cards to support my child's reading development?
Begin with the most common phonograms your child encounters in their reading. Present each phonogram sound first, then show how it appears in different word positions. Use the three-period lesson format: introduce the sound, practice recognition, and finally ask the child to identify it independently. Always follow your child's interest and readiness cues.
