Phonics and Reading

One aspect we ask all parents and carers to support us with is hearing your child read at home. The more reading they practise, the more fluent they will become, they more words they will know and their understand for many other subjects will improve.

Reading is the key to learning. It is used all across the curriculum and the understanding of vocabulary is essential.

If you have a look at these pages it will tell you what we teach and how we teach both phonics  and reading.

 

Below you will find a video to help you understand how to help your child with phonics. Saying the sounds correctly will support your child's ability to say the phonemes and blend them together.
