The spoken language “Listening and speaking are the roots of reading and writing”. (The Rose Report on the teaching of reading, 2006)
Children learn how to use their voices:
– to make contact with you
– to let you know what they need
– to show how they are feeling

Daily phonics Daily phonics taught through Jolly Phonics a synthetic phonics programme
‘Synthetic phonics offers the vast majority of young children the best and most direct route to becoming skilled readers and writers.’ Sir Jim Rose

Phonics lessons
• daily
• pacy
• children learn to recognise, say and write a sound a day
• children are introduced to the 44 sounds (phonemes) in the English language: …
• … and graphemes, which are sounds written down – what the letters look like
• blending sounds to read
![Page 10: Welcome to Higham Ferrers Nursery and Infant School Early](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022012505/6180ebb9f288a0012226db75/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Beginning to blend
• We use sound buttons to help the children learn to read.
• Sound buttons can only say the sounds...
• (eg, they can only say c_a_t, not cat)
![Page 11: Welcome to Higham Ferrers Nursery and Infant School Early](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022012505/6180ebb9f288a0012226db75/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• Sound talk helps children learn to spell too!
• Children convert words into sounds.
• They press the sounds on to their fingers...

Guided Reading/Individual Reading • Important but only part of the learning to read process.
• How often?
• Who with?
• Role of Reading Diary
• Home reading books
• How you can help
![Page 14: Welcome to Higham Ferrers Nursery and Infant School Early](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022012505/6180ebb9f288a0012226db75/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Shared reading • This is where we share a book as a whole class or in
smaller groups. It provides us with the opportunity to model other reading skills, such as:
using illustrations
retelling the story in your own words
guessing missing words from the context.
• We also encourage the children to answer questions about the story to show that they have understood what is happening - this is comprehending.
![Page 15: Welcome to Higham Ferrers Nursery and Infant School Early](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022012505/6180ebb9f288a0012226db75/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
How can you help at home Phonics is fast-moving and children are most successful when their learning is supported at home, with talk, practice and lots of praise. Help by:
• using pure sounds
• knowing the graphemes
• understanding how sound talk helps with reading and spelling.
![Page 16: Welcome to Higham Ferrers Nursery and Infant School Early](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022012505/6180ebb9f288a0012226db75/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
and... By reading your child lots of lovely stories and asking lots of questions!
Use these prompts to help you:
What is that
character
thinking?
What is the
character
saying?
What do you
think that character is
feeling now?
What is happening?
What do you think happens next?
