Quick answer

Brolly Juniors runs phonics classes in Hyderabad for ages 4 to 9, teaching the 44 English sounds and their spellings across six levels. Children learn to blend sounds into words, segment words for spelling, read tricky words on sight and finish the pathway reading levelled stories aloud with expression.

Why sounds come before letter names

A child who knows the word "bee" for the letter B cannot use it to read the word bat. Brolly Juniors teaches the pure sound first, so blending works from the very first week.

  • Sounds taught in reading-useful order, not A to Z
  • Blending and segmenting practised in every session
  • Tricky words taught separately, on sight
  • Handwriting formation practised alongside the sound

Level-wise curriculum

Six levels, from first sound to first storybook

Every level runs on the same rhythm—hear it, say it, build it, read it, write it—so children always know what a session will feel like.

Level 1

Sound awareness & first sounds

Children tune their ears before they touch a letter, then meet the first sound group.

  • Rhyme, rhythm and syllable clapping
  • Hearing the first sound in a word
  • Sound group s · a · t · p · i · n
  • Correct letter formation
Outcome: Says and writes 12+ letter sounds accurately.
Level 2

Blending & first words

The moment reading clicks—three separate sounds become one whole word.

  • Sound group c · k · e · h · r · m · d
  • Blending c-a-t into cat
  • Word building with sound cards
  • First decodable word lists
Outcome: Reads and builds 50+ three-sound words.
Level 3

Segmenting & early spelling

Reading in reverse: children pull a spoken word apart and write the sounds they hear.

  • Sound group g · o · u · l · f · b
  • Segmenting words for spelling
  • First tricky words: the, I, to, go, no
  • Sound dictation practice
Outcome: Spells simple words from dictation without prompting.
Level 4

Digraphs & blends

Two letters, one sound—plus the consonant clusters that unlock longer words.

  • sh · ch · th · ng · qu
  • Beginning and end blends: st, tr, cl, nd
  • Reading four and five-sound words
  • First full sentences read aloud
Outcome: Reads short sentences independently.
Level 5

Long vowels & alternative spellings

The same sound can be written more than one way—children learn to choose.

  • Magic e: cake, bike, home
  • ai / ay, ee / ea, oa / ow, oo
  • ir · ur · er and vowel families
  • Growing tricky-word bank
Outcome: Reads a short levelled story with support.
Level 6

Fluency, expression & comprehension

Accuracy becomes reading that sounds like talking—and children show they understood it.

  • Punctuation, pace and expression
  • Retelling a story in order
  • Answering how and why questions
  • Weekly dictation and reading log
Outcome: Reads a levelled book aloud and retells it in their own words.

Small batches and a weekly home note

Batches are capped at eight children so the educator can hear every child read aloud in every session. Families receive a short note each week with the sounds covered and one five-minute practice idea—no worksheets pile-up.

Questions & answers

What families and schools ask

What age should a child start phonics?
Most children begin between ages 4 and 6, but the program also supports older learners in Classes 1–3 who are still building reading confidence. A short readiness check before the first class decides the starting level.
Which phonics method do you follow?
A synthetic phonics approach: children learn letter sounds first, then blend those sounds to read words and segment words to spell them. Sight words are taught alongside, because English does not follow the code every time.
How long does the full pathway take?
The six levels usually take 9–12 months at two sessions a week. Children who join with some reading already in place are placed at a later level after the readiness check.
Will phonics help with school spelling and reading?
Yes. Blending, segmenting and letter-sound accuracy are the same skills school reading and dictation depend on. Parents receive a short weekly practice note so home reading stays consistent with class work.
