Phonics

So, what exactly is phonics?

Phonics is a systematic programme of learning that teaches children to read skillfully and quickly. Words are made up from small units of sound called phonemes which are represented by graphemes (letters). Children learn how to make grapheme-phoneme correspondences (GPCs) to help them to read and write.

Our Phonics leader, Miss Stryczek, along with our teaching team, has put together our phonics workshop resources in order to support you and your child at home with their early reading and writing. This includes a virtual phonics workshop video for anyone who has been unable to attend in school.

You will also find a wealth of resources and information around the Year 1 Phonics Screening Check and how to help your child prepare for this at home.
