Hi,
Some good Phonemic Awareness Resources that I have come across for my Year 7 (11-12 year old) students who are dyslexic are:
Jollyphonics programme - excellent work books accompanied by CDs and multisensory teaching strategies. I have seen huge progress in my weaker students using these workbooks.

Milo's Reading Game - a great resource made up of cards that have words on them and a colour and animal. All of the cards are placed in the middle and students take turns at taking a card, saying the word on the card, then they can 'steal' a card from any other student..they then have to say that word also and the aim is to collect as many cards as you can that have the same colour or animal on them. This is great fun and without realising the students are practising saying and sounding out unfamiliar words.

TRUGS is also a useful and practical resource, that also has cards and has many different games that practice reading aloud, looking at words and reading while having a fun game.

I have also made cards for a game we call 'mix and match' which has 5 x each letter in the alphabet in a pile and then 20- 30 cards with 2- 3 letters that are beginning, middle or ends of words. The students have to select the correct letters from the alphabet to create a word, then say it out aloud. I usually give them a practice, then we have a game and you turn over the card and have 20 -30 seconds to quickly try and create a word. If they make a word they get to keep it which equals 2 points. If they are unsuccessful they can have longer or be given some hints ( 2 letters) and if they get it, they still get 1 point.

I hope some of these may help you and be good fun practical games for your lessons!
