Phonics

Sounds

Graphemes

The English language is very complex.

Phonics is the method of teaching reading through the identification of sounds andgraphemes.

All words are made up of sounds e.g. in ‘mat’ we have the sounds ‘m’, ‘a’, ‘t’.A graphemeis another namefor the letters we use to write the sound. Write the letters‘m’ ‘a’ t’ in the air as you say the sounds.We teach phonics so that yourchildren will have the tools to read any word.

Pure Sounds

Sound pronunciation guide

Ruth Miskin (| |)

Training

Weteach using pure sounds.

Weuse pure sounds (‘m’ not’ muh’, ’s’ not ‘suh’,etc.) so that your child will be able to blend thesounds into words more easily.

Children need to know sounds — not letter names —

to read words.

e One of the most complex alphabetic codesin the world

Ruth MiskinTraining

In English we have more than 150 waysto

represent 44 sounds, using the 26 letters in the

alphabet.

This means wehaveto group letters together to

write some sounds. Show with a grapheme such as6° 3

igh’.

This makes our language one of the most complex

in the world!

Story Time

e Read fo your children

e Ask lots of questions and share opinions

You're never too old, too wacky, too wild, to

pick up a book and read to a child.

Dr Seuss

Ruth Miskin MDTraining

Oneof the most important things you can do as aparent at homeis read higherlevel texts fo your child.

This helps develop an enjoymentfor stories and themotivation for learning to read themselves.

Ask questions and share opinions about what youread to engage them in discussion, get them thinkingabout what they read and develop vocabulary.
