  1. Supporting your child's Phonic Development Parents meeting Monday 16th November 9am

  2. Why is Phonics important? There are around 44 sounds in the English Phonic code. Children need to know these sounds in order to read and write words. They also need to learn some ‘whole’ words by sight as not all words can be sounded out. We teach sounds using the ‘letters and sounds’ programme and we use ‘jolly phonics’ actions.

  3. Useful Definitions • Phonemes – smallest unit of sound • Graphemes – written representation of the sound • Digraph – 2 letters making one sound EG ‘ee’ • Trigraph – 3 letters making one sound EG ‘igh’ • Split digraph – where 2 letters are not adjacent EG a-e as in gave

  4. When do we start teaching phonics? • Nursery – Preparation for learning letter sounds. Work on hearing and identifying rhythm and rhyme, distinguishing between sounds we hear around us, syllables, sound talk • Reception – Continue the Phase 1 work from Nursery. Then single letter sounds, digraphs • Year 1 – consolidate and apply single letter sounds and digraphs. Alternate spellings • Year 2 – Support for spelling

  5. How do we teach phonics? • Discrete daily phonic sessions – recall, teach, practise, apply • Follow structures program – Letters and Sounds • Systematic order to teaching letter sounds in groups – s a t p i n • Taught how to blend to read and segment to write straight away • Multi-sensory approach to teaching each sound with letter songs, actions, opportunities to write the letter in the air Use of Jolly songs • Opportunities to reinforce learning through related activities to practise learnt letter sounds • Use of different websites and programs to support learning – Phonics play • Learnt sounds sent home for parents to practise with their child Make it fun!
