Abstract | ||
This research project focuses on developing an interactive website to teach primary school learners aged 6 to 9 years old English sounds and their blending using CVC (consonantvowel- consonant) word structures. Recognizing individual sounds, blending them correctly, and linking the sounds to form words are essential skills at the early stages of learning to read. This website aims to help primary school learners develop these skills in a fun, age-appropriate way. It combines a variety of engaging learning tools for primary learners, such as phonetic clues, visual cues, interactive tasks that focus on identifying sounds and combining them into words, and exercises. Word segmentation is also included and is designed around the CVC pattern to simplify the process as much as possible. The website also allows learners, their parents, and teachers to effectively monitor language development and progress, as it includes adjustable difficulty levels and progress tracking features. The primary goal of this project is to support students at risk of reading difficulties and to connect letter sounds with their shapes. Ultimately, this study aims to support and develop foundational skills in listening, reading, and speaking by providing primary learners with fun and effective ways to explore phonemes and build confidence in their first educational steps. | ||
