Jolly phonics

Jolly Phonics is a reading program based on systematic synthetic phonics approach and developed by Sue Lloyd and Sara Wernham, who were practising classroom teachers at Woods Loke Primary School in Lowestoft, England and is published by Jolly Learning, UK that is owned by Christopher Jolly. Jolly Phonics is a multi-sensory, fun and child centred approach which caters for children with varying capabilities. 
 
It has scientific research based evidence to support its method and has been adopted throughout the world. 
 
The focus of the program is on the teaching of the English alphabetic code; this includes teaching the ways in which the code knowledge is put into practice. The phonics teaching is not intended to take up all the time allocated for English lessons. This means that teachers are free to teach the other aspects of literacy, such as comprehension and poetry, in the remaining time.
