Parent Resources and Recommendations
At ClearMind Learning, I know how important it is for parents to feel supported at home as well as during lessons. That’s why I’ve created this page to share helpful tools, ideas and links with you.
Here you’ll find:
- Free resources you can use with your child to build skills and confidence in reading, phonics, maths and more.
- ClearMind recommendations are products that I trust and use myself, shared through affiliate partnerships. If you choose to buy through these links, it won’t cost you extra, but it does help me to keep creating free content for families.
These resources are designed to make learning a little easier, whether you’re supporting your child’s homework, looking for new strategies, or simply wanting to understand their learning journey better.

Magnetic Letters
Boggle is an amazing game that I use in my literacy based sessions, and most importantly for me, it is dyslexia friendly. It is a low-pressure way for children to practice and improve word recognition, spelling, and vocabulary skills.
Match and Spell

Match and Spell - Next Steps
Match and Spell encourages letter recognition, teaches word building and promotes matching of pictures and words, from simple words like 'cat' to more complex four-letter words. There are two ways to play, and the game is designed for both guided and independent word building.
