What are phonics and how can I help?

This year we have started a new phonics scheme in Foundation Stage and Year 1.  It is called Little Wandle Letters and Sounds Revised. 

On this page you can find a link to the Little Wandle website where you will find lots of advice on how to support your child with saying their sounds and writing their letters.  There are some useful videos so you can see how phonics is taught at school and feel confident about supporting reading at home.   Links to some of the most useful resources are included below.  There is also some information on oral blending and segmenting which your child will begin learning in Nursery.
