About this resource
Series: Ready to Read Phonics Plus
Phase: Māhuri | Sapling
Phonics Cards Māhuri – Sapling
The Māhuri | Sapling phonics cards follow on from the Tupu | Seedling phonics cards. You can use them to support teaching of letter- sound (grapheme-phoneme) correspondences and spelling patterns before students encounter them in the Māhuri books, or to support as they read. Students’ learning needs guide you in choosing how to use the cards.
Suffix cards
Within this set, there are four cards with the label ‘suffix card’ (-s, -es, -ed, ing). A suffix is a morpheme (unit of meaning) added to the end of a word. These are the first cards in the Phonics Plus series to feature a morpheme. You’ll find additional information on suffixes and suffixing conventions within the Teacher knowledge section on the back of these cards.
