Literacy Resource Pack

The Sounds and Symbols Literacy through Music Resource Pack is now available

Sounds and Symbols’ activities and programmes promote early literacy learning and help to build a sound foundation for all early years children (0-8 years of age).

  • Cognitive skills – comprehension, sequencing, memory, prediction and RAN
  • Language skills – listening and speaking
  • Motor skills – gross and fine motor skills
  • Social skills – turn taking, communication, self-regulation
  • Learning about books and text.

These skills and knowledge all contribute to the building of a secure foundation for early literacy learning.

The activities may be delivered together in programmes or integrated into other early years curricula.  Ideally, the activities or programmes should be delivered regularly to enable children to learn and revise their developing skills.
