What is synthetic phonics teaching?
• It teaches children the correspondences between graphemes in written language and phonemes in spoken language, and how to use these correspondences to read and spell words.
• Knowledge of the skills of segmenting and blending

Segmenting and blending
• Segmenting is breaking the word down and blending is building up the sounds to read.
• Both skills are important.

Digraphs and trigraphs• A digraph is a 2 letter phoneme
e.g. sh as in ship, ee as in feet• A trigraph is a 3 letter grapheme
e.g. igh as in night.

Programme

Phase 1 - General sound discrimination
• Such as:• Listening walks• Instrumental sounds• Clapping and body percussion• Rhyming and rhythm- Nursery Rhymes

Phase 2• Phase 2 teaches at least 19 letters of
the alphabet and moves children on from oral blending and segmentation to blending and segmenting with letters.
• Children learn about diagraphs and learn some tricky words eg the,to,go.

Phase 3• Phase 3 teaches another 25
graphemes, most of them made up of 2 letters eg, oa, ee, oo, oi.

How to help your child at home?
• Be a sound detective! After listening to your child read, ask if they can spot any sounds (graphemes) in the words that they have been learning.
• Can they spot any tricky words in the text?

Reading at Home.• Whilst hearing your child read , if there is
a word that they are unsure of, encourage them to sound out the phonemes and blend. For example sh-o-p shop.
• If it is a tricky word (one that can not be segmented and blended) such as the, encourage the children to say the letter names and if necessary then tell them what the word is. *Tricky words need to be learnt visually*
