Phonics - Read Write Inc
Read Write Inc.
Read Write Inc: Get reading. Keep reading. Change everything
Read Write Inc. starts within our Nursery when the children are ready, and continues throughout Reception classes and into Year 1. Some children will continue to have some specific phonics teaching from Year 2 upwards.
Read Write Inc. Phonics teaches children to read accurately and fluently with good comprehension. They learn to form each letter and spell words correctly. Children in Reception and Year 1 have a daily phonics session which is followed by reading comprehension. Children experience success from the very beginning. Phonic books are closely matched to their increasing knowledge of phonics and 'tricky' words. As children re-read the stories, their fluency increases.
In our Nursery, Read Write Inc. is delivered to small groups of pupils who are ready. This usually happens in the summer term.
In Reception and Year 1, children will have discreet phonics sessions daily. During this session they learn new sounds and also continue to practise previously learnt sounds. This will be taught by teachers and teaching assistants, all of whom have received training.
Every 6-8 weeks your child will be assessed and their grouping may be altered as the programme works on the stage and not the age of the child.
