What is Letterland?

Letterland is a unique, phonics-based approach to teaching reading, writing and spelling for 3-8 year olds. Our award-winning educational resources can be used in school or at home. The Letterland characters transform plain black letter shapes into child-friendly pictograms and they all live in an imaginary place called Letterland.

Simple stories about the characters explain the full range of dry phonics facts so that children are motivated to listen, to think and to learn. These stories explain letter sounds and shapes, allowing children to progress quickly to word building, reading and writing.

At home Reading with your child is so important. In fact, research shows that it’s the single most important thing you can do to help your child’s education. That’s why we produce a great range of Letterland resources for you to have at home to help make learning relevant and engaging every day.

At school The Teacher’s Guides for Early Years and Primary Key Stage 1 provide everything you need for direct phonics instruction. The award-winning educational resources can be used in regular and special education classes.

Letterland uses multi-sensory learning strategies, such as songs, rhymes, role-play, actions and activities. Teachers have all the tools they need to teach and the systematic instruction gets children reading faster.

What people say about us

“Letterland encompasses everything. It’s visual, engaging and builds confidence with learning.”

“Children have learnt so much more than I thought possible!”

“Teachers see their children reading and writing earlier than ever before!”

Why Letterland?

AWARD WINNING

A complete range of learning resources. Research-based and matching curriculum requirements. So why should I look at Letterland? Simple. Your kids will want you to!

Story-based

Multi-sensory

Direct instruction

Letterland teaches phonics through the use of simple stories. The story logic engages children leading to long-term retention of concepts.

Letterland activates every kinaesthetic and auditory learning channel. By using multiple teaching modalities Letterland works for all children!

Letterland’s direct and systematic instruction gets children reading faster by increasing their accuracy in decoding and word recognition skills.

Research-based

Cross-curricular

Much research has been done to understand the way we learn.

This analysis supports the use of characters and actions to teach phonics.

The alliterative nature of learning with the Letterland characters lends itself to linking with other subject areas such as Art, PSHE, Science and Geography.

Correlates with the National Curriculum Letterland correlates with the requirements of the UK National Curriculum.

“An extremely well thought out programme that is highly imaginative and distinctly memorable.”

“It works! ”

How does it work?

1. Learn letter sounds Once you have met the friendly Letterland characters, just start to say their names for the correct letter sound.

2. Learn letter shapes Simple stories about the Letterland characters ensure correct letter formation, avoiding confusion over similar looking letters.

3. Word building Blending and segmenting all through words is introduced very early on, covering blends, digraphs and trigraphs.

4. Advanced spelling Phonics stories give children a friendly logic for remembering all 44 letter sounds and their major spellings.

5. Grammar Take the road to a better understanding of grammar with the new series - Letterland Grammar. Covering all the concepts children learn at school in Key Stage 1, this series uses clever analogies to explain grammatical concepts.
