Synthetic phonics again.....
I'm still on the hunt for anyone else who's teaching adult literacy with this kind of synthetic phonics approach. I found reference to a woman called Jaz Ampaw-Farr who seems to be linked to an organisation called Which Phonics?. There's reference to her making a programme for the bbc about teaching adults using "jolly phonics" but i can't find anything else about it; i emailed her about it but have had no reply....

Rachel - I can't help with your main query as have never used a 100% phonics approach when teaching adults. However one group of people that are passionate about this are the Reading Reform Foundation http://rrf.org.uk/
They have a fascinating massage board http://rrf.org.uk/messageforum/ where most threads (General Forum area) can be viewed by non-members.
One member, Mona McNee, emailed me recently asking me to put a link to her site on my 'Useful links' page. She offers a completely free 100 lesson, synthetics phonics package on her site http://www.catphonics.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/
Please note this is not a recommendation as I have not used this package - I'm merely passing on the information!
