for reading and segment for spelling. (Reception autumn term)
Phase Three – Vowel diagraphs (Reception Spring/Summer)Phase Four – CVCC words for example ‘tent’ and CCVC
words for example ‘drop’ and CCVCC words for example ‘crunch’ and ‘ground’
(Reception Summer, Year One Autumn)Phase Five – Alternative spellings and pronunciations

Children are expressing their love of stories, known characters, own ideas and are keen to write these down
Children are encouraged to write down the sounds they can hear in the words (oral segmenting is very important to observe at this stage as recall of the correct letter shapes is a higher level skill)
Helping at home... forming letters
Encourage ‘frogs leg’ pencil grip (pinch and flick!)
Movement of letter shapes is of most importance (not neatness!)
Encourage and praise all ‘writing’
Time to try phonic activities!Look at the activities on the table and have a go!
Any questions?
Thank you for coming.
