There is really no need for phonics. So I would say the letters. Letters, first a child should know how to identify the letter, and then they should be told how it sounds. For example, first, a child learns to tell their name and later to tell the spelling.

Why do letter names exist in parallel with their phonic sounds?
It goes back to the days of Latin, since unlike the Greek alphabet, which had actual names for its letters (alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon etc.), it mostly took the sound that the letter stood for and if needed added an /e/ (short or long) to it.
