Phonics update 8.12.17

We have had a really busy few weeks in phonics and below are all the phonemes and tricky words that we have learned so far. Please help your child to learn all of them as this will really help them with their reading and writing skills. We are already so impressed with how the children are applying their phonic skills to reading and writing and it is great to see how proud the children are of their work!

Phonemes we have learned so far:

s       a        t        p       i        n       m       d        g       o        c        k       ck       e       u        r        h         b

f         ff          l          ll        ss        j         v        w         x        y         z         zz

 

Digraphs we have learned so far (two letters together that make one sound):

qu            ch           sh            th         ng

 

Tricky words learned so far (don’t forget, we can’t sound these words out):

I          to          the           no          go           he          we          me          be           she

Between now and the Christmas holidays we will be revisiting what we have learned so far to consolidate our knowledge. One of our favourite games is Picnic on Pluto! Don’t forget you can play this at home by visiting www.phonicsplay.co.uk and clicking on Phase 3. From there you will be able to choose which sound to focus on. Have fun!
