Phase 3 – mostly vowel digraphs (e.g. ee, oa, oo)
Phase 4 – adjacent consonants (in words such as ‘crash’)
Phase 5 – alternative spellings for phonemes
Phase 6 – spelling rules
Invite questions/ differentiation
Pronunciation of sounds
Glossary sheet

4. Phonics screening check
In June, all Year 1 children will undertake the phonics screening check to assess what they can and cannot decode
Those children in Year 2 who did not meet the expected level in phonic decoding will also undertake the check
The check involves reading phonically decodable real words and non-words

5. Words you can’t sound out!
We call these ‘tricky words’
Many are included in the New Curriculum list of common exception words
They are taught alongside phonics
For example:
he is a tricky word because the ‘e’ is not making its usual short sound
could is a tricky word because the letters ‘oul’ are making an ‘oo’ sound (as in book)

TRICKY WORD flash cards

6. How we teach reading Guided reading Strategies
Use phonics, but not if you know the word!
Does it make sense? What would make sense?
Look for clues in the picture or context of the book
Have you seen this word on another page?
Are there any bits of the words you recognise?
Read ahead, miss out the word, and work out what it could be when you’ve finished the sentence
Backtrack and read again for fluency

8. How we assess reading
Before moving a child onto the next book band colour, a trained adult hears them read a specially selected book and asks the child questions
If the child achieves 95% accuracy in reading and has a good understanding of what has been read, they move onto this colour

14. Maths: Non-negotiables for each year
These are provided in your pack – they set out the key learning objectives for each year.
They have a specific role in helping pupils meet the year group expectations. At Rodborough we believe that if pupils are not confident in these areas then they will find the rest of the curriculum difficult to access.
The maths curriculum is much broader than this!
