We are all synthetic phonics teachers!

School Board

On Wednesday August 4th, we had our first gathering at ESSARP centre. We were 16 enthusiastic teachers sharing our teaching experience with Jolly Phonics and we decided to have this blogspot so as to share our evidence of learning.

WORKING PHONICS INTERNATIONAL WITH YEAR 6 CSA 

Last Friday August 13th, I worked with Year 6 on Phonics. We worked on the "wa" spelling for the /wo" sound.

Here you can see them working on the sound activity sheets of Phonics International. They are working in groups reading words with the spelling "wa" as in water, wasp, swatch, and finding meanings in the dictionaries.

After doing the sound activity sheets, they read the "I can read" texts, spotted all the words with the sound /wo/ and then answered the questions on the text.
