1 Phonics for Reading and Spelling

2 Phonics Game Use the phase 2 grapheme cards to make as many different words as possible. s a t i

3 Workshop Aims To gain an understanding of the way in which phonics is taught for reading and spelling. To understand the different vocabulary involved in phonics teaching. To hear the pronunciation of individual phonemes. To collect ideas for activities to support children at home.

4 Early Phonics Phonics is split into different phases to be taught during the Foundation Stage and Key Stage 1. PHASE 1 Environmental and instrumental sounds including voice sounds Rhythm, rhyme and alliteration Oral blending and segmenting PHASE 2 Children will learn their first 19 phonemes: Set 1: s a t p Set 3: g o c k Set 2: i n m d Set 4: ck (as in duck) e u r Set 5: h b l f ff (as in puff) ll (as in hill) ss (as in hiss) They will use these phonemes to read and spell simple consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC) words: sat, tap, dig, duck, rug, puff, hill, hiss

5 Phonics Words Your children will learn to use the term: Blending Children need to be able to hear the separate sounds in a word and then blend them together to say the whole word.

6 Blending /b/ /e/ /d/ = bed /t/ /i/ /n/ = tin /m/ /u/ /g/ = mug

7 Phonics Words Your children will learn to use the term: Segmenting Children need to be able to hear a whole word and say every sound that they hear.

8 Segmenting bed = /b/ /e/ /d/ tin= /t/ /i/ /n/ mug= /m/ /u/ /g/

9 Oral blending and segmenting how to help at home: Children need to practise hearing a series of spoken sounds and merging them together to make a word. The robot game For example, you say b-u-s, and your child says bus. I spy can be played by saying the sounds in the word instead of the initial letter name.

10 Phonic terms your child will learn at school Phoneme Grapheme Blending Segmenting Digraph Trigraph Phoneme frame Sound button Tricky words

11 Challenge 2 minutes to chat together and give an example or explanation for the phonics vocabulary there is a sheet on your table GOOD LUCK!

12 Phoneme a letter sound made verbally Grapheme a written phoneme (letter sound) Blending Squashing sounds together to make a word Segmenting Splitting a word into its component sounds Digraph 2 letters to make 1 phoneme ch Trigraph 3 letters to make 1 phoneme air Phoneme frame boxes to show each sound seperated in a written word Sound button each phoneme in a word Tricky words words that have more unusual graphemes to represent phonemes i.e. the and go

13 Saying the sounds Sounds should be articulated clearly and precisely. und-pronunciation-guide/ Good Letters and Sounds youtube clip (Google search pronunciation of phonemes)

14 How are sounds and words taught at school? Flashcards Actions Grapheme hunts inside and out Computer games Writing graphemes with pens, chalks, paint, water

15 How can I help at home? Sound talk and robot talk words I spy games using oral blending and segmenting Magnetic letters Foam bath letters Whiteboards and pens Felt pens / crayons and big sheets of paper

16 Phase 3: Learning the long vowel phonemes Children will enter phase 3 once they know the first 19 phonemes and can blend and segment to read and spell CVC words. They will learn another 26 phonemes: j, v, w, x, y, z, zz, qu ch, sh, th, ng, ai, ee, igh, oa, oo, ar, or, ur, ow, oi, ear, air, ure, er They will use these phonemes (and the ones from Phase 2) to read and spell words: chip, shop, thin, ring, pain, feet, night, boat, boot, look, farm, fork, burn, town, coin, dear, fair, sure

17 Phonics words Phoneme frame and sound buttons c a t... f i sh.. _

18 Add these words to a phoneme frame ring chick flight

19 Answers r i ng ch i ck... _ f l igh t.. _.

20 How can I help at home? Phoneme frames Flashcards on fridge Spot words in reading books Magnetic letters Foam bath letters Robot talk games as in phase 2

21 Phase 4: Introducing consonant clusters: reading and spelling words with four or more phonemes Children move into phase 4 when they know all the phonemes from phases 2 and 3 and can use them to read and spell simple words (blending to read and segmenting to spell). Phase 4 doesn t introduce any new phonemes. It focuses on reading and spelling longer words with the phonemes they already know.

22 Sort the words pick fleth thin pan harn paig

23 Other games / activities phase 4 Matching pictures and words Answering yes/no questions Shared and independent writing Countdown reading a list of words in a time limit can be a team game Quickwrite write graphemes quickly on whiteboard or paper Sentence substitution sentences at child s level with other word cards to substitute i.e. The bus is red. Word cards for train and blue

24 The lazy dog slept on the cosy sofa. cat ugly jumped hard bench walked

25 Phase 5: Children will be taught new graphemes and alternate pronunciations for these and graphemes they already know, where relevant. Children will be encouraged to think of graphemes as a code This is the code for When spelling words they will learn to choose the appropriate graphemes to represent phonemes spelling banks and word lists.
