Phonics

We have been learning some Phase 2 letter sounds over the past few weeks in Nursery. Phase 2 letter sounds are introduced in sets. We are also learning to read some tricky words the, to, I, no, go into. The first set of sounds we have been learning are - s,a,t,p,i,n.

Watch the video below and encourage your child to repeat the sounds (s,a,t,p,i,n only). 

Phonics activities

• Have a look around you home with your child and see if you can find any objects that begin with the initial sounds - s,a,t,p,i,n for example 's' - sock, 'a' - apple etc. 
• Write the sounds on separate pieces of card, making 3 letter words for your child to read (eg tap, pat) and ask them to try and make a word you say.
