Introduction.


“it is generally accepted that it is harder to
learn to read and write in English because the
relationship between sounds and letters is
more complex than in many other alphabetic
languages”
“it is crucial to teach phonic work
systematically, regularly and explicitly
because children are highly unlikely to work
out this relationship for themselves”
phonics is
knowledge of
the alphabetic
code
+
skills of
segmentation
and blending

Oral Language
 of
crucial importance
 oral
comprehension underpins reading
development
“Talk is the sea upon which all else floats” (James Britton, 1970)
 vocabulary development
 heavy
influence of social factors
Phonics terminology
digraph
two
letters,
one sound
a consonant digraph contains two consonants
sh ck th ll
a vowel digraph contains at least one vowel
ai ee ar oy
split digraph
a digraph in which the
two letters making the
sound are not adjacent
(e.g. make)
trigraph
three letters making one
sound
igh
dge
phonemes and graphemes






phoneme – the smallest unit of sound in a
word (44 phonemes in spoken English)
grapheme – a letter or group of letters that
represent a sound
digraph – a grapheme where two letters
represent one sound
trigraph – a grapheme where three letters
represent one sound
split digraph – a digraph where the two
letters are not adjacent
tricky words- words which when sounded out
do not follow the normal spelling patterns
Blending and
Segmenting
Children need to be able to:
 break down the spoken word into its letter
sounds;
 remember the order of the letter sounds;
 remember the grapheme for each sound;
 blend the letter sounds together to check that
the phonemes in the spoken word map on the
sequence of letters in the printed word.

(auditory discrimination)
listening and remembering sounds
(auditory memory and sequencing)
talking about sounds
(developing vocabulary and language
comprehension)
Letters and Sounds
Seven Aspects
1 – environmental sounds
 2 – instrumental sounds
 3 – body percussion
 4 – rhythm and rhyme
 5 – alliteration
 6 – voice sounds
 7 – oral blending and segmenting

REVISIT/REVIEW
Phase 2 example
Recall a selection of previously taught GPCs. Read
yesterday’s spelling words.
Sing an alphabet song.
TEACH
Phase 2 example
Teach a new GPC. For example, introduce <u> on its
own and then in words (sun, up, mum, nut). ‘Sky
write’ the letter, saying the phoneme as you do so.
Use a mnemonic to help the children remember.
PRACTISE
Phase 2 example
Play “what’s in the box?” Present a ‘treasure box’
with words written on ‘coin’ cards. Ask a child
to choose a card and put it on the board.
Blend and segment (in pairs).
APPLY
Phase 2 example
Provide sentences for the children to
read using their new and existing
knowledge.

Daily reading- signing diaries and
comments,
EYFS and KS1 have phonics home learning
Encourage segmenting and blending
Don’t make it a battle – if they are tired
share the book.
See school web-site for video for
examples
Ask your class teacher for support.
