Aims for the meeting
• to provide information on how we teach your child to read and write.
• to enhance links between home and school and enable you to support your child’s learning.

Phonics
• Phonics underpins early reading and writing.
• Children need to develop letter sound knowledge and be able to blend sounds together to read words.
• They also need to be able to segment spoken words into separate sounds to spell.
![Page 4: Bradshaw Community Primary School](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815550550346895dc31cdb/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Letters and Sounds
• At Bradshaw we teach phonics using the government produced, ‘Letters and Sounds’ programme.
• We teach the children to listen carefully to the sounds in words, blend sounds together to read words (b-a-t), recognise the symbols used to represent sounds (single letters and groups of letters) and separate the sounds that they can hear in words to write them down.
![Page 5: Bradshaw Community Primary School](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815550550346895dc31cdb/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Blending and Segmenting
• The 2 key skills children need are the ability to blend sounds together to read words and segment sounds that they hear in words to write them down.
![Page 6: Bradshaw Community Primary School](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815550550346895dc31cdb/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
How do we teach Letters and Sounds?
• The children have daily phonics lessons.
• Children work as a whole class, in small groups, pairs and sometimes as individuals.
• Lessons are targeted to children’s needs.
• Children learn through fun activities and games. The children don’t know they’re learning!
![Page 7: Bradshaw Community Primary School](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815550550346895dc31cdb/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Phase 1• Explore and experiment with sounds and words• Aim is to make children really listen to different
sounds• Distinguish between different sounds in the
environment and phonemes• Learn to orally blend and segment sounds in
words
These skills will be worked on throughout primary school.
![Page 8: Bradshaw Community Primary School](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815550550346895dc31cdb/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Phase 2
• Learn 19 sounds and learn the graphemes that represent them.
• Move on from orally blending and segmenting to blending and segmenting letters to read and spell (maybe with magnetic letters) VC and CVC words
• Learn letter names• Introduce two syllable words, simple
captions and some tricky HFW.

Let’s play a game!

Phase 3
• Teach another 25 sounds and graphemes to go with them.
• Continue to practise blending and segmenting using new sounds and two syllable words.
• Children continue to learn the reversibility of blending and segmenting.

Phase 4
* Blend adjacent consonants in words and apply this skill when reading unfamiliar texts, (CCVC, CVCC, CCVCC)
step list clap grasp strap* Segment adjacent consonants in words and
apply this in spelling
Beware – Adjacent consonants are not digraphs. They make two distinct sounds.

Teaching Resources
Include…
• white boards and pens
• magnetic letters
• puppets
• flashcards

Reading
Our aim is for your child to develop a love for reading and a skill for life.
![Page 17: Bradshaw Community Primary School](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815550550346895dc31cdb/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
What children need to know…
• How to handle a book and turn the pages• How to track the text on each page• How to decode or recognise the words on the
page• Most importantly children need to understand
what they read.
Children develop their reading skills at different rates.
![Page 18: Bradshaw Community Primary School](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815550550346895dc31cdb/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Key Reading Skills
• Children need to be able to decode words (phonics blending sounds together)
• They need to recognise common words on sight (high frequency words). Some of these are decodable but many are not.

How we teach reading
• Read lots of stories and information books
• Discuss stories read – interact with texts
• Model reading behaviour and enjoyment
• Provide a word rich environment
• Lots of positive experiences with books – shared with the whole class, small groups, pairs and individual.
![Page 20: Bradshaw Community Primary School](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815550550346895dc31cdb/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Strategies for teaching reading
• Modelled and Shared reading
• Individual reading
• Guided reading
![Page 21: Bradshaw Community Primary School](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815550550346895dc31cdb/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Decoding skills to comprehension
As children become more competent decoders and these skills become more
automatic, they can concentrate on comprehension and interpretation of the
text.
Change of focus in GR sessions.

Home reading books
• Home reading books are organised into bands of difficulty.
• There are different schemes in each band.• Children are informally assessed to move to the
next band.• Children will move through the reading book
bands at different rates.
![Page 23: Bradshaw Community Primary School](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815550550346895dc31cdb/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
How can you help?
• Read with your child – share stories every day, follow your child’s interests and enjoy reading together.
• Encourage your child to practise his/her home reading book daily. Little and often is best.
• Be positive – encourage every attempt and praise their efforts. Make reading a really enjoyable time.
• Note your child’s interests and any other comments in your child’s reading record/planner.
• Please sign your child’s planner to let us know that they are ready to change their books.
• Don’t forget BugClub.

Writing
Our aim is for your child to become a confident, independent and creative writer.
![Page 25: Bradshaw Community Primary School](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815550550346895dc31cdb/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
What do children need to do?
• Think of what to write.• Rehearse what they want to write.
• Write down their ideas, segmenting words
to spell and recalling HFWs.• Hold a pencil correctly and be able to
form letters.• Reread what they have written.
• Understand what they have written.
![Page 26: Bradshaw Community Primary School](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815550550346895dc31cdb/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
What will children do?
• Make marks – scribbles and squiggles
• ‘Read’ marks• Use random letters (ones from their names etc…)• Single letters to represent words• Initial sounds to represent words• Initial and final sounds (sometimes dominant sounds)• Use phonetic spellings• Include HFWs• Include learned letter patterns and spelling conventions
![Page 27: Bradshaw Community Primary School](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815550550346895dc31cdb/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
How we teach writing
• Lots of different opportunities to write
• Lots of talk as the basis for writing
• Celebrate and encourage all attempts to write
• Model writing in a wide range of situations (making lists, writing stories, writing instructions)
• Phonics sessions – segmenting to spell words
• Learning to spell HFWs
• Shared writing• Guided writing• Independent writing• First hand experiences as a
basis for writing• Letter formation activities
![Page 28: Bradshaw Community Primary School](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815550550346895dc31cdb/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
How you can help• Be a role model – let your child see you writing and
let them help you.• Value and praise any writing your child does• Encourage them to write – cards, letters, playing
school• Let them play at writing – give them a paintbrush
and some water outside, chalks, different coloured pens, sketch books, folded card to make cards etc…
• Encourage application of phonics and known HFWs.
