Have a look at the Grow the Code chart! Almost all of the words in the English Language can be worked out using what we call the Alphabetic code that we are teaching in school- this is made up of 44 sounds.<br>
03
How do we teach tricky words? The Alphabetic code is made up of 44 sounds…..but…. many of these sounds can be spelled in a few different ways, but some spellings are far more common than others so we teach these first! Once these are secure we teach some of the more unusual ways of spelling the 44 sounds. There are a few words with unusual spellings that the children need to read and write a lot even in the early stages words such as he said was and we teach them as we go along.
Look at was- why is it tricky?
We show the children which is the Tricky part of the word (the bit we get cross with!) The middle and final letters are tricky.
We teach the most common tricky words first as these are the ones they will encounter in their reading groups first.<br>
04
Sounding out/Blending/ Reading with your child In our lessons the children are taught to recognise the connection between the sounds (phonemes) and the letters used to write them down (graphemes)
When we read we see the letters written down and change them back into sound. We join them together and read! (this is called sounding out and blending ) This is why it is so important to make sure that the sounds are pure- no ah/uh at the end of a sound!
Early books have sound buttons to help- dots and dashes
Please have a go on your whiteboards to put in the sound buttons - shop/ check/ clearing
Moving quickly towards reading words without dots and dashes
Encourage Reading with pace and fluency and confidence- no robot talking…(prosody- model with your child and repeat)- Blending in your head<br>
