About Phonics Sentence Monkey Lite
These 15 phonics sentence monkey games are great for learning to read sentences with a variety of word families. The words used in these sentences are built around short and long vowel word families and other vowels combinations like r-controlled vowels, double vowels and more. The words are carefully chosen with rhyming combinations in mind. These sentences will also present phonics learners with a chance to practice common sight words (the, a, and etc.). After learning to read words, reading simple sentences is the next step. Before you know it, your child will be reading stories next.
