Phonics
Below you can find the links to three videos that show how we deliver reading in Year 1.
Read 1 focuses on decoding words and finding key sounds within the book. We also look at new vocabulary words the children might not have heard before.
Read 2 is where the children focus on prosody and reading with fluency and expression.
Read 3 is all about comprehension and ensuring children have understood the book they have read.
The aim is by the end of these 3 reads that your child will bring their book home and be able to read it with fluency and expression. We hope these videos help you to understand how reading is taught and how you can support your child at home using a similar approach if you feel they still need support with reading the text.
