Spelling List

In Reception we focus on learning how to spell Tricky Words and High Frequency Words. Here are the lists of words that the children learn how to read and spell throughout the year.

 

 

Letter-Join


Homework

Children will be issued any homework on a Friday, it should be completed by the following Wednesday. Most activities will be recorded using Tapestry where the children will be able to talk about what they have learnt during Tapestry talk time

 

Topic

In Reception we cover a different topic each half term. We ensure that the topic links to all areas of provision and that the children have the opportunity to initiate their own learning. Here is a link to our Long Term Plan.

However, sometimes our topics change due to the children’s interests.

 

 

Phonics

What is Phonics?

Phonics is a method for teaching reading and writing.

It develops a child’s ability to hear, recognise and use the sounds within words.

Learners are also taught the correspondence between sounds and the graphemes (spelling patterns) that represent them.

Children will also be taught other skills, such as whole-word recognition (‘tricky words’), book skills and a love and enjoyment of reading.
