How do we teach phonics at Puttenham?

Letters and Sounds

• A government programme that we follow.

• There are 6 phases.• It has a simple lesson plan for

each lesson and we can use Phonics Play to help us include ICT.

Phase 1- Early Years• Environmental sounds• Body percussion• Musical instruments• Nursery rhymes• Rhyming words• Oral blending• Games! E.g. cross the river

Phase 2- ReceptionWe teach at least 19 letters, and move children on from oral blending and segmentation to blending and segmenting with letters. By the end of the phase many children should be able to read some VC and CVC words and to spell them either using magnetic letters or by writing the letters on paper or on whiteboards. During the phase they will be introduced to reading two-syllable words and simple captions. They will also learn to read some high-frequency ‘tricky’ words: I, the, to, go, no, into.

Phase 2- ReceptionHow?
