The complexities of the English Alphabetic Code include:<br />

1. one sound (phoneme) can be repre<<strong>st</strong>rong>se</<strong>st</strong>rong>nt<strong>ed</strong> by one, two, three or four le<strong>tt</strong>ers: e.g. k, sh, ng, igh, eigh<br />

2. one sound can be repre<<strong>st</strong>rong>se</<strong>st</strong>rong>nt<strong>ed</strong> by different spellings (graphemes): e.g. /oa/ is repre<<strong>st</strong>rong>se</<strong>st</strong>rong>nt<strong>ed</strong> by o, oa, ow, oe, o-e, eau, ough<br />

3. one spelling can repre<<strong>st</strong>rong>se</<strong>st</strong>rong>nt multiple sounds: e.g. ‘ough’: /oa/ though, /or/ thought, /oo/ through, /ou/ plough, /u/ thorough<br />

Key to the 12 units of Debbie Hepplewhite’s Phonics International online synthetic phonics programme:<br />

units1-5 Mainly simple code with options to extend 1<strong>st</strong> 2nd 3rd 4th 5th<br />

6-12 /air/, /eer/, /zh/, split digraphs, complex code 6th 7th 8th 9th 10th 11th 12th<br />

Debbie’s programme introdu<<strong>st</strong>rong>ce</<strong>st</strong>rong>s a simple code of at lea<strong>st</strong> one le<strong>tt</strong>er/s-sound corresponden<<strong>st</strong>rong>ce</<strong>st</strong>rong> for each of the 44+ sounds of speech of the English language.<br />

The programme then expands to teach further spelling and pronun<<strong>st</strong>rong>ci</<strong>st</strong>rong>ation variations of the complex Alphabetic Code.<br />
