Grafari (Phonics)

Overview: 

  • Enhanced focus on listening skills in Phone Recognition Exercises 
  • Personalized pace in Phone Recognition Exercises
  • Updated Personalized Learning Goal in Phone Recognition Exercises

What’s New?

 

Enhanced Focus on Listening Skills in Phone Recognition Exercises 

Images in all Phone Recognition Exercises are now hidden to ensure learners' undivided attention on developing their listening skills. Images are revealed only after a learner solves the task, which promotes better concentration and comprehension.

 

Personalized pace in Phone Recognition Exercises

To move forward further within a module, learners now have to complete a full loop only for the first two graphemes instead of the first two grapheme groups. This change allows learners to progress more efficiently through the exercises.

 

Updated Personalized Learning Goal in Phone Recognition Exercises

With the updated end conditions in Phone Recognition Exercises, learners now have the opportunity to move on faster. This provides learners with a more flexible and tailored learning journey so they can progress better at their own pace.
