Free! Phonics Bank: 12 months in 50 languages

You can use this phonics bank with the Save Our Langs Phonics Charts template kit to make language teaching and learning resources, covering the 12 months of the year in 50 different languages with phonics, for learners of all ages, for language introduction and revision at school and at home, for teachers who are fluent speakers as well as those with little knowledge of the target language.

Call to action: of the 7000 living languages spoken in the world today, 90% of them will be extinct by the end of the century. You can help to reverse this trend or at least to slow it down, by teaching community languages & world languages in your school.
