Phonics
In phonics we use the Jolly Phonics programme of actions and sounds to learn our letter sounds. See below for a list of the Jolly Phonics actions for Phase 2 and Phase 3 sounds. Some of our children in the small group phonics are still working through Phase 2 sounds, and the children in the teacher's phonics groups are working through the Phase 3 sounds.
See link for the actions sheet. Groups 1,2 and 3 are Phase 2 sounds, and Groups 4,5,6 and 7 are Phase 3 sounds
We are also learning to recognise some 'tricky words' by sight. These are common words that are not phonetically plausible. Below are links to some songs that we use to help us to learn them.
Below are some website links to games that we play during phonics sessions at Pre-School. There are also some good apps for tablets and iPads such as the Jolly Phonics app and Phonics Street.
