EARLY READING
All pupils access Read, Write, Inc, reading books, which are organised to be progressive. Pupils practise reading these books in class three times per week with a focus on accuracy, fluency and comprehension, including prosody (reading voice). Pupils take home the book that they have read in school, alongside an additional book bag that matches their phonics level. The Storybook is matched to the sounds and words they know – a decodable book – so they should be able to read all the words.
Daily reading
As well as phonics, daily reading is timetabled in class for pupils to listen to a wide-range of stories, poems, rhymes and non-fiction develop children’s vocabulary, language comprehension and love of reading.

What can you do as a parent/carer?
To help your child at home, the best thing you can do is read with them for 10 minutes a day. We send home a mix of phonetically decodable books that the children can read and story books for you to read with them for pleasure.
Here is a link to the Read, Write, Inc., portal for how you can support at home.
Each year we run a variety of parent workshops for phonics. Below is an overview of the parent workshops in each term.
