The Magic Words Playing Cards and Learning Boards are printed in the reading font most commonly used in student’s readers and books.
It is important that students can read the words automatically before being required to write the words (which is a more complex skill and often lags being able to read the words).
The resources have been designed to use generically across Australian states and for students around the world.
Students are encouraged to practice their writing on the back panel of the Learning Boards in any font used by their school.
Most students can recognise the letters of the alphabet in the various fonts once they have been shown the variations.
Use a water based marker on the back of the Magic Words Learning Board to practice writing the Magic Words in the level the student is learning.
Use the dotted thirds and place the body of the letters on the red line.
Wipe the Learning Board clean and keep practicing writing the words.
Students can use the words at the bottom of the Learning Board as a reminder of how to spell the words.
