Phonics is the foundation of English reading and writing. As children advance through phonics levels, they acquire essential tools to decode words, improve spelling, and gain confidence in communication. Level 7 Phonics marks a significant milestone, focusing on complex graphemes, advanced blending, and fluency-building strategies. This blog explores what Level 7 Phonics entails, why it matters, and how PlanetSpark’s Spoken English Course is an ideal choice to master this stage, with a free trial class available to get started!
Level 7 Phonics is designed for children who have already mastered the basics of phonics, including initial sounds, digraphs, trigraphs, and basic word building. At this stage, the curriculum dives into:

By Level 7, children are expected to read fluently and independently. The training is crucial because it:
Many students at this level begin to enjoy reading chapter books, writing creatively, and participating in class discussions, all of which are supported by strong phonics skills.
Here’s a snapshot of what’s typically covered:
Skill Area | Focus |
|---|---|
| Phoneme-Grapheme Correspondence | Multiple spellings of a sound (e.g., /ai/ in ‘rain’, ‘play’, ‘great’) |
| Tricky Words | Mastery of irregular words (e.g., ‘through’, ‘people’, ‘beautiful’) |
| Fluency | Reading longer texts with expression and intonation |
| Spelling | Root words, prefixes, suffixes, and patterns |
| Comprehension | Answering inferential and factual questions |
Programs like Jolly Phonics and Letters and Sounds often use structured weekly modules to gradually introduce these concepts. Similarly, top-tier platforms like PlanetSpark integrate these skills with speaking and listening activities to develop all-around language proficiency.
