Phonics skills development is crucial for children aged 7-9 as it serves as the foundation for reading and writing proficiency. During these formative years, children transition from learning to read to reading to learn. A strong grasp of phonics enables them to decode unfamiliar words, improve their vocabulary, and develop better comprehension skills.

Teachers and parents should recognize that this age range often encompasses significant shifts in literacy expectations; mastering phonics is essential for academic success. Children who struggle with phonics may experience frustration, leading to decreased motivation and confidence in their reading abilities. By fostering a solid understanding of phonics, both parents and teachers can help children become more enthusiastic readers, enhancing their learning experiences across subjects.

Moreover, phonics serves beyond literacy; it helps build critical thinking and problem-solving skills as children learn to analyze words and sounds. Supporting phonics development translates into lifelong benefits, as proficient readers tend to perform better academically and are more likely to succeed in future educational endeavors. Therefore, prioritizing phonics during this stage is not only beneficial for immediate literacy skills but also for a child's long-term love of learning.
