Little Wandle at Home First Phonics Flashcards for Reception

Product Information

This book has been carefully matched to your child’s current reading level. If your child is reading it with little help, please don’t worry that it’s too easy – your child needs to develop fluency and confidence in reading. In Years 2 and 3, we continue to teach reading in the same way as Key Stage 1, for any children who still need to practise reading with decodable books.

The Reading Leader and SLT use the audit and prompt cards to regularly monitor and observe teaching; they use the summative data to identify children who need additional support and gaps in learning. By moving the colourful cards around on the table, turning it into a game, children will find learning phonics stimulating. This set covers Phases 2 to 5 of the curriculum. Find resources for the other phases here. o Children in Year 1 review Phase 3 and 4 and are taught to read and spell words using Phase 5 GPCs with fluency and accuracy. We all use the same language, routines and resources to teach children to read so that we lower children’s cognitive load.

't' Lesson Pack - Level 2 Week 1 Lesson 3

Children in KS1 will love challenging classmates or making the phonetic noises all together! Think of actions or motions to go with the sounds to make sessions more dynamic. At Princes Risborough Primary, we believe that reading and writing is an essential life skill and we are dedicated to enabling our children to become enthused, engaged and successful lifelong readers and writers. To support this, we practise the ‘Little Wandle: Letters and Sounds Revised’ Phonics scheme and implement the following: For more on phase 2, take a look at these Sound Cards or these phonics mini books Level 2. How can I make learning Letters and Sounds fun?

There are plenty of ways of making the Letters and Sounds program fun. Using alphabet sounds flashcards and turning your teaching into a game can be a great place to start. We start teaching Phonics in Preschool ('Little Wandle Foundation for Phonics') and follow the Little Wandle Letters and Sounds Revised progression, which ensures children build on their growing knowledge of the alphabetic code, mastering phonics to read and spell as they move through school. In the Autumn Term we teach phonics for up to 30 minutes a day with an emphasis on revising Phase 5 from Year 1 Summer Term planning. The teaching of Phonics is fast-paced, and we encourage all children to actively participate in each lesson, and by encouraging the children to take ownership of their learning we are continuously striving for excellence. Children in Reception and Key Stage 1 receive additional Phonics ‘keep up’ sessions either on a 1:1 basis or in a small group.

A sharing book. Your child will not be able to read this on their own. This book is for you both to read and enjoy together. Making something competitive can encourage some children to pay attention and engage. You could challenge children to find objects that begin with a certain sound. They could bring the objects in or take photographs. By the time children leave Princes Risborough Primary School we want them to be competent and fluent readers who can recommend books to their peers, have a passion for reading a range of genres including poetry, and participate in discussions about books. At Princes Risborough Primary School, we believe that reading is the key to all learning and so the impact of our reading curriculum goes beyond and is embedded across the entire curriculum for our children. We use the government validated systematic synthetic phonics programme (SSP) ‘Little Wandle: Letters & Sounds Revised’. The programme is designed to teach children to read from Reception to Year 2, using the skills of decoding and blending sounds together to form words. The Little Wandle programme provides a full progression through all commonly occurring GPCs(sounds), working from simple to more complex, and taking into account the frequency of their occurrence in the most commonly encountered words. o Children in Reception are taught to read and spell words using Phase 2 and 3 GPCs, and words with adjacent consonants (Phase 4) with fluency and accuracy.
