Word Puzzles
Each phonics session in Year 1 and 2 begins with 'Word Puzzles'. Within this section children learn to blend and segment, read and write, words with the unit's target sound.
One Sound, Different Spellings
Part 2 of each phonics session in Year 1 and 2 is always 'One Sound, Different Spellings'. During this section of the session children read and write word with the target sound, sorting them according to the sound spelling.
One Spelling, Different Sounds
Sentence Writing
At the end of each phonics session children either read or write sentences (alternating each lesson). During this section children rehearse 'say the sounds, write the word' and 'say the sounds, read the word'. This should then be implemented into any written tasks the children carry out across the curriculum.
