Hello,

I have set lots of different activities for the reception and year 1 children through education city, I have made sure that the games and activities are all tablet friendly so these can be accessed both on a tablet as well as a laptop.

Also remember these key websites with free resources:

Phonics play, twinkl, get epic (lots of free books for the first 30 days), Oliver Jeffers is also reading stories for children, white rose maths has also got some new resources for parents too!

Best wishes

Dear Parents/ guardians/carers,

Please find attached the order in which phonics is taught in our school and the letters and sounds official book as a PDF. The PDF gives all of the rules for the sounds and different ideas for games.

HEDGEHOGS YEAR 1 children – we were starting the New pronunciations for known graphemes – ‘u’ (but, put (in the south of England) ).

HEDGEHOGS RECEPTION children – we have completed phase 3 and are moving onto phase 4 (there are no new sounds we consolidate their knowledge of phase 3).
