    What is phonics?

    It sets out a suggested programme of teaching


    children the sounds and the letters of the
    alphabet in order to segment and blend.

    These are the necessary skills required to


    decode words to read and write.

    Letters and Sounds starts in Phase one which


    begins in Foundation Stage and progresses
    through Key Stage 1 until all Phases are
    complete.
    PHONICS TERMS YOUR CHILD WILL LEARN
    Diagraph: Two letters that make one
    sound when read.
    Trigraphs: Three letters that make one
    sound.
    CVC: Stands for consonant, vowel,
    consonant.
    Segmenting is breaking up a word into its
    sounds.
    Blending : Putting the sounds together to
    read a word
    Tricky words/Alien word/Pseudo word:
    Words that cannot easily be decoded.

    How is Phonics taught in School?
    • Every day the children have a 30
    minute session of phonics.

    • Fast paced approach.

    • Lessons encompass a range of games,


    songs and rhymes.

    • We build upon this knowledge


    throughout the school day.

    • Additional interventions
    Your child will learn to use the terms:

    Children need to be able to hear the separate


    sounds in a word and then blend them
    together to say the whole word .
    Tricky word, Alien Word,
    Pseudo Word?
    Children are taught high-
    frequency words, including tricky
    words...

    … as an example.
    • The phonics screening check is
    designed to confirm whether pupils
    have learnt phonic decoding to an
    appropriate standard.

    • The check consists of 20 real words


    and 20 pseudo-words that a pupil reads
    aloud to the teacher.

    How can I help at
    home?
    Most children learn best when they are
    doing something for a real purpose and
    because they want to, so playing games is
    an easy way to support their learning.

    Here are some great suggestions for


    activities and games you can do at home
    or out and about.
    https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/welcome-

    together.

    • Use them to make different


    words at home and play
    phonics games.

    • Read everyday with your child


    if possible.
