Abstract

It’s known that phonics is an important part of literacy instruction for native speakers. However, it’s argued that problems of English phonics learning among Chinese school-age children lie in three areas of phonic learning, namely, less emphasis on phonics learning, mixed extra-curriculum training programs and overwhelming learning resources. The main channels of English phonics learning among Chinese school-age children are found in a wealth of forms: interactive Apps in smart devices, multi ROMs and videos, phonics-focused animated cartoons, series of phonics textbooks, picture books and leveled books, and courses provided by language training schools. It’s hoped that this research provides a useful reference for future phonics instruction and learning practice among young English language students in China.
