  1. Bronze Class 21st November 2013

  2. Aims of workshop • To help you to support your child to read & write. • To show you how (and why) we teach phonics & handwriting. • To develop your confidence to use phonics with your child.

  3. Why do we teach phonics? • Research has shown that phonics is the most effective way to teach young children to read & write.

  4. How do we teach phonics? • We use ‘Jolly Phonics’ to learn 42 sounds • We teach blending sounds to read • We teach segmenting words to write

  5. Jolly Phonics • Jolly Phonics uses pictures, stories & actions to teach sounds • Each letter (and combination of letters) make a sound. • These are phonemes.

  6. a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z

  7. Jolly Phonics • Some sounds are written with two letters or more • These are called digraphs

  8. ai ee ie oa ue or ng oo/oo ch sh th/th qu ou oi er ar igh

  9. Blending • Blending is a technique where we say the individual sounds in a word and then run the sounds together to make the word. • E.g. sounding out the individual sounds in dog like this d-o-g. • Blending improves with practice.

  10. Blending Look at these examples... p-i-g m-ee-t t-r-ai-n sh-i-p

  11. Segmenting • Segmenting is when you break down a word into the component sounds in order to write. • First, say the word clearly, then identify each sound you hear and write them down. It helps to count the sounds. • For instance saying the word ‘cat’, hearing the sounds c-a-t helps the child to spell it.

  12. Segmenting Count and find the sounds in these words... dad coat rain stick conker

  13. Tricky words & sounds • Some words are easier to learn as ‘tricky’ words and we teach children to learn these on sight. e.g. the go he to no said she • Some words have double letters. e.g. fluff floppy rabbit • In some words the digraphs are split. e.g. kite Pete mute

  14. When the children join us we will be using the blending and segmenting rules to read and write some words and a sentence.

  15. Can you use your sounds to read these words? sat pin sit

  16. Can you use your sounds to write a word to go with the picture?

  17. Now have a go at reading a sentence. The cat and the dog.

  18. Handwriting • We teach a cursive script across • the school • We prepare children by teaching them • three basic techniques

  19. ‘Froggy Finger’ grip • Writing anti-clockwise • Using pre-cursive script
