We are currently focusing on Phase 3 phonics within the Government Letters and Sounds programme. If you would like to read into this further, I have added the government document for Letters and Sounds below.
This weeks sounds:
| Sound/ Focus | Explanation |
| ur | ur as in burger, church, turnip, |
| ow | Recognising that the sound that ‘ow‘ can make two different sounds as in ow in frown and ow in arrow. |
| Tricky words | These are words that cannot be sounded out. Have a look at the ‘Terrific Tricky Words’ blog for different ways to practice tricky words. Please see the tricky word attachment below, for the list of words. |
