Phonics


At Church Eaton we are passionate about equipping our children with the skills they need to be able to read and find enjoyment from the written word.  We follow the Schofield and Sims My Letters and Sounds programme which is a comprehensive resource for the teaching of systematic, synthetic phonics.

Phonics is a way of teaching children how to read and write. It helps children hear, identify and use different sounds that distinguish one word from another in the English language. Written language can be compared to a code, so knowing the sounds of individual letters and how those letters sound when they’re combined will help children decode words as they read.


 

Phonics Screening Check


The Year 1 phonics screening check is not a formal test, but a way for teachers to ensure that children are making sufficient progress with their phonics skills to read words and that they are on track to become fluent readers who can enjoy reading for pleasure and for learning.
