  • First Class Phonics provides a direct link between reading and spelling through the weekly teaching sequence.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Each lesson focuses on\u00a0<\/span>either\u00a0<\/span><\/i>reading\u00a0<\/span>or\u00a0<\/span><\/i>spelling to avoid cognitive overload.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Reading lessons always precede spelling lessons so, when children come to a spelling lesson,\u00a0 they have already been introduced to the new grapheme, its letter formation and reading words with that new grapheme.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Spelling lessons start by revisiting the newly taught grapheme and reading words using that grapheme.\u00a0 This provides a confident starting point for teaching children to form the new grapheme correctly and to spell words using that grapheme.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Teachers teach new vocabulary using engaging picture prompts. These same picture cards are used during dictation as a visual prompt and concrete link to the dictated word.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Spelling lessons always provide opportunity for teachers to teach spelling through dictation and then opportunities for children to practise spelling using fun, engaging activities.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • In the Apply part of the lesson, teachers can dictate sentences so children can apply their learning into writing a meaningful caption to match a picture prompt. This picture also provides a concrete link to the dictated sentence.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • First Class Phonics provides a clear progression for teaching children to spell Common Exception Words (Tricky Words) with the help of a loveable puppet, Trever the T-Rex. \u00a0There is also a clear progression for teaching High Frequency Words (phonically decodable words) with the help of another puppet, Izzy the Busy Bee.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Captions have been specially written to provide opportunity for children to regularly practise spelling these Tricky Words and HFWs within phrases and sentences. There is a structured progression for these captions which includes sentence types, sentence structures and grammatical features linked to the Year One and Two National Curriculum.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    How will First Class Phonics help your children to practise spelling and writing?<\/h2>\n
      \n
    • With First Class Phonics, there is an emphasis on using manipulative resources in Reception for spelling \u2013 before children in EYFS are \u2018ready to write\u2019. \u00a0Although some children may not have developed the physical skills required for handwriting, they\u00a0will\u00a0<\/em>have the phonic skills and understanding required to spell words and short phrases with magnetic letters or letter cards.\u00a0 Our spelling activities can be differentiated to allow all children to make progress in their spelling regardless of their physical development or learning needs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
