Phonics

 As a school, we follow the, North Somerset Learning Exchange's Programme for 'Phonics into early spelling', to support our teaching of reading.

Phonics in Reception

Phonics begins in Reception as soon as the children have settled, with listening walks, rhyming games, body percussion, and many other fun Phase 1 activities. We then move on to learning Phase 2 sounds up until Christmas. In Reception, phonics is taught every day, through fun, physical activities and catchy songs.

Below are some useful links to support your child with their phonics:
