Reading
In Reception and Year 1, we use Little Wandle Letters and Sounds, systematic synthetic phonics programme. Children are taught phonics daily which is complemented by three reading practice sessions a week. Each week, the children read the same decodable book, matched to their current phonics teaching. Our E-Library books support the reading practice in class with a phonetically matched text at home. Alongside this, we actively foster reading for pleasure through books selected from our Library Bus, as well as other books that the children self-select, to read at home. In Year 2, those children that are unable to read fluently continue on Little Wandle Letter and Sounds. Those children who are fluent readers read from our free choice texts in preparation for key stage 2. Teacher assessment is used to support the transition to Accelerated Reader, our key stage 2 programme.
