1.1 Introduction
Phonics is considered as the approach for the child to teach them through letter sounds. With the
help of phonic methods, Preschool students are more motivating. The multi-sensor method
enhanced the abilities of children to memorize the lesson. Two types of approaches are used to

The two approaches used for teaching phonics are Synthetic phonic instructions and Analytic
phonics instruction.
demonstrates students first to identify sounds/letter and then put these sounds or synthesize
together to build a word. The traditional elementary program takes this approach.
Analytic phonics instruction: Analytic phonics is also known as implicit phonics. In this
approach, it teaches students to identify the sounds within the words they previously do firstly.
According to Johnston it begins at an initial level of the whole word which is ideally found
between the text of the sentence and then on the second level moves to the individual parts
(Johnston, 2012). It shows the relationship between letter and sound and between the texts of

I would prefer the Synthetic or explicit phonics approach because students who have problems or
are struggling in reading will be benefitted through this approach of phonics instructions. With this
approach, it will help students of kindergarten in enhancing the ability to spell and read where 1 st
graders will be better in decoding and spelling words. In contrast to this implicit or analytic phonics
is better for non-struggling readers. Explicit phonics instruction is more efficient than implicit
phonics instructions. Research by Mc.Geown also supports explicit phonics instruction and
seems that it is favored by most educators and educational researchers (McGeown, 2014).
Multiliteracy
According to Mary Stokrocki, in the mid-nineties, The New London group came together in
considering the future and state of literacy theory and pedagogy (Stokrocki, 2014). The discipline
that deals with the practice and theory of teaching are known as pedagogy. Though this approach
comprehension.
Hill (2009) mentioned that the multiliteracy map will provide a conceptual framework which will
help in examining four dimensions of multi literacy which are related to each other.

The multiple literacy can be divided into understanding, digital, visual, technological and
o Visual literacy: Visual literacy is reflecting and understanding the knowledge through
visual means.
o Textual literacy: Reading for understanding and evaluating through various sources like
o Digital literacy: Digital literacy is synthesizing and gathering information or data from
digital mediums.
communicate.
The combination of traditional learning and phonics with multiliteracy is successful for a variety
of reasons. Street (2009) also stated students who study under multiliteracy are more active in their
learning process and more committed to increasing their comprehensive motivation. One of the
major goals of multiple-literacy is to provide students with the option of choice, this also grants
students to seek topic of their interest and develop their knowledge in ways that best support their
set of skills. Through multiple-literacy it would help students in understanding phonics more easily

Emergent literacy
The explanation of childs knowledge of writing and reading skills before they recognize
how to write and read words is called emergent literacy. The basic factors of emergent
literacy are print motivation, vocabulary, print awareness, narrative skills, letter
have a critical importance in the early education of a child. Moreover, the focus of this
outcome is on consonant sounds, which are easier to say than vowels. Spend enough time
practicing this skill with the students before you introduce the next outcome which is about
both consonants and vowels. Students need to learn how to connect the initial sound to its

ADEC Curriculum
ADEC refers to Abu Dhabi Educational Council it is a curriculum which was developed
in New South Wales, Australia. In this curriculum, the core subjects are taught in English
and teachers are required to receive ESL/IELT training program. While over, Encourage
parents to develop a placemat with their child that has letters and pictures to match. They
can place the placemat on the childs eating tray or dining table.

1.5 Conclusion
Analytic Phonics Children learn to identify words by their shape, their beginning and ending
letters, and by the context which they used in sentences, often with the aid of pictures. Synthetic
Phonics Children learn to synthesize pronunciations for unfamiliar written words by translating
letters into sounds and blending the sounds. Those two approaches appropriate system for
children between age group 3-6. The study highlighted the IT education and technology
adoption through the phonic method as well as by their curriculum material. Two types of
