Master English's trickiest spelling patterns through play.
AGO Phonics Advanced combines Levels 4 (Purple) and 5 (Black) of the AGO Phonics Learning System in one premium two-piece box.
Designed for older learners, confident readers and English language learners, these two decks explore 72 advanced spelling patterns and introduce over 200 carefully illustrated vocabulary words. Together they help learners tackle the less predictable side of English, building confidence in reading, spelling and vocabulary through fun, interactive game play.
As the final stage of the AGO Phonics Learning System, AGO Phonics Advanced builds on the skills developed in AGO Phonics Zero and Levels 1–3, giving learners the opportunity to practise many of the unusual spelling patterns that appear in everyday English.
Each target pattern is demonstrated using three illustrated example words, with the key letters highlighted to help learners recognise how spelling patterns are used across different vocabulary. Through repeated play, learners naturally reinforce these patterns while improving decoding, spelling and word recognition.
Why AGO Phonics?
English spelling isn't always straightforward. Many common spelling patterns have multiple pronunciations—or are pronounced in unexpected ways. AGO Phonics Advanced gives learners repeated exposure to these patterns through enjoyable games, helping them develop confidence with some of the most challenging parts of the language.
Like every AGO Phonics game, the cards are shuffled every time you play, continually reviewing previously learned patterns while introducing new ones. This meaningful repetition keeps learning fresh and helps strengthen long-term reading and spelling skills.

Free AGO Phonics App
AGO Phonics is more than a collection of card games—it's a growing learning system designed to support learners, teachers and parents. The AGO Phonics App is completely free for iOS and Android, helping English learners hear accurate pronunciation while giving readers extra support when tackling unfamiliar words independently.
The app is especially valuable with the Advanced levels, where many spelling patterns have unusual pronunciations. Learners can hear every letter sound, phonics target and vocabulary word with a single tap, making independent practice easier and more effective.
