Good Morning Phonics Pupils and Parents,

I hope you’ve all managed to settle into a pattern with the RWInc youtube lessons now – please do get in touch if you need help accessing any of these resources. This week we’re continuing in the same way, all details below.

All lessons are now available from 9.30am. Additional lessons now available for reading High Frequency Words (Red Words) – they have Read Red Word 1, Read Red Words 2, and Read Longer Words 3. There’s a broad range of challenge within these, so if you want additional phonics activities, start with Red Red Words 1 and if your child can read them all, progress onto the next set.

1: Go to Ruth Miskin Training on youtube. Watch Set 1 Speed Sounds, Word Time & Spelling lessons. They haven’t published the schedule for June yet, but anything within Set 2 will be appropriate for your child. If you find the daily sound is one that your child is very confident, feel free to try the Set 3 Sounds and Spelling lesson for that day. All of these lessons are beneficial. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCo7fbLgY2oA_cFCIg9GdxtQ

Optional Extras

2: Go to the Oxford Owl website (all children should have been given a login). Login first, then come back to this page and click this link.  Set 1 Speed Sounds book – this is an interactive book that lets your child practise the letter formation directly on the screen. https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/api/interactives/29318.html

3: Staying on the Oxford Owl page, if you scroll down slightly from the Set 1 Speed Sounds, you’ll see individual Speed Sound practice sheets. Select the one that matches each days phonics video. If you have access to a printer, print off the relevant sheet. If you don’t, try and do something similar on a blank piece of paper, or in your child’s home learning jotter. https://home.oxfordowl.co.uk/reading/reading-schemes-oxford-levels/read-write-inc-phonics-guide/#set1

4: Practice the Speedy Green Words – https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/api/interactives/29096.html

Hopefully all the links work and you manage to access everything. Finally, there’s a lot of content here. Please don’t feel you have to do it all, just dip in and out of what you can, and what works around your family / work / life balance.
