There are different levels of phonics. The most basic level is starting from 2 and a half years of learning to recognize letters and the sounds that those letters make. Later, students learn about multiple sounds, blended sounds, and putting those sounds together into words.

Children are ready to start phonics programmes when they have learned to identify all the letters of the alphabet – which is usually somewhere between three and four years of age.

Is it more beneficial for children to focus on memorizing sight words or to learn phonics?
Phonics is great for building a strong foundation in reading skills, but it does take time and patience. On the plus side, once children have mastered phonics, they will be able to figure out most new words with ease.
