Tric a Chlic is a synthetic phonics programme in Welsh for children aged 3-7. The programme is built from three elements namely,
The synthetic phonics method focuses on presenting the sounds of the letters rather than presenting the alphabet in a specific order. By recognising and learning the sounds, the learners immediately begin to establish phonics building blocks, and with the right tools, use them to read simple words quickly:
Identify and learn the letters by seeing and hearing the sound. The letters will be introduced in the form of sound and movement.
Learning how to form the letters alongside the process of identifying and learning the sounds.
Once the children have started to recognise and learn just two sounds they will be able to start combining the sounds to help them read e.g. m-a-m mam and then on to write the new words.
Begin to recognising the phonic building blocks that are within a word in order to create a specific sound or sound. By learning to blend and segment at the same time, children become familiar with building and breaking the sounds within words, e.g. mor/lo > morlo
The programme is divided into three stages: Cam 1, Cam 2 and Cam 3. Within the stages, the sounds are grouped into specific colours. Once the children recognise the sounds and associate the letters with the sounds, they will be able to blend the sounds to read the words within the colour group.
