4 What does the teaching of reading look like in the classroom?

5 THRASS Consonant sounds Vowel sounds

6 Special friends...2 letters that make 1 sound
The Speed Sounds Special friends...2 letters that make 1 sound

7 Learning to blend and segment with the sounds we know…
Assisted blending as soon as the first 5 sounds are learnt! Moving towards independent blending Fred Fingers for spelling *Say the word and pinch on the sounds Eyes for reading, fingers for spelling! a c t

8 Learning to blend and segment with the sounds we know…
Green words – contain all the sounds we know *Fred talk *Fred in your head *No Fred talk High frequency words

9 The English language is a complex code…
It would be easy if we only had to learn a few sounds!! ay play eight cake straight igh right pie kite fly Set 3 sounds – now need to know the letter names!

11 Why are the children being screened?
Every Year 1 child in the country will be taking the phonics screening check in the same week in June. The aim of the check is to ensure that all children are able to read by the end of year two. This ‘midpoint check’ will ensure that we have a clear understanding of what the children need to learn in year 2.

12 THIS IS NOT A READING TEST
What will the children be expected to do? The check is very similar to tasks the children already complete during phonics lessons. Children will be asked to ‘sound out’ a word and blend the sounds together.eg d-o-g - dog The focus of the check is to see which sounds the children know and therefore the children will be asked to read made up ‘nonsense’ words. THIS IS NOT A READING TEST

13 Examples of words:

14 When will the screening take place?
The screening will take place throughout the week beginning Monday 11th June. The children cannot retake the test at any other time so it is very important your child is in school during this week. The check has been designed so that children of all abilities will be able to take part.

15 Who will complete the check?
The children will complete the check one at a time in a quiet area of the school. Their class teacher will conduct all of the screening checks with the children. The screening will only take 5-10mins with each child.

16 How can you help? http://www.phonicsplay.co.uk/BuriedTreasure2.html
Encourage your child to use their sound mat when writing and use their actions to find the sound they need. Children can practise their phonics by playing games online. The children particularly like ‘Buried Treasure’

17 How can you help? REMEMBER: Phonics is not the only thing needed to become a fluent reader. Please continue to read with your child each night and encourage them to: Sound out Re-read to check it makes sense. Use pictures for clues. Ask questions about the book. And most importantly ENJOY READING!

18 How to help your child read at home

19 Remember no ‘fuh’ and ‘luh’!
Reading stories at home Read favourite stories over and over again Read some stories to children that are at a higher level than they can read themselves. Listen to them reading their reading books. Practise pronouncing the sounds… Remember no ‘fuh’ and ‘luh’! Have fun with Fred Talk! “What a tidy r-oo-m!” “Where’s your c-oa-t?” “Time for b-e-d!”

20

21 It is not a race through levels…there are many skills involved!
Supporting reading It is not a race through levels…there are many skills involved! Children need to be exposed to words several times before they become fluent and automatic. We aim for the children to be able to read as storytellers with the appropriate expression and intonation and comprehension.
