Ahead of the Year 1 phonic screening which will take place in June, we have attached some words for your child to practise at home. These words are a mixture of real and fake (nonsense) words. They have been taken from the government website for phonics screening 2016. To practise the words your child will have to blend the letter sounds. Please encourage your child to practise reading the words as much as possible!

• Phonics Screening Words 2016

Over the past few weeks we have been focusing on story telling. The children used their imagination to come up with fantastic ideas for their own story. Here are a few examples.

We had a great day, the children enjoyed sharing their favourite stories and completed book reviews.

Phonics and Spelling
Our knowledge of phonics sounds and spelling rules are always growing. If you need help in articulating some of the phonics sounds your child has brought home, follow the link to watch the video!
