Our Philosophy
Our philosophy is borne out of hands-on, recent classroom experience combined with expert phonics knowledge. It is based on the principle that children learn best when they are engaged, involved, and taught in ‘short bursts’, avoiding asking young children to sit and listen for long periods.
We have devised our lessons with all of this in mind, using bright, engaging games and activities that bring joy to phonics learning.
A Proven Process
- Review & Revisit – A quick recap of previously taught grapheme and phonemes to consolidate learning and boost confidence.
- Teach – Introduce new learning! Whether it’s a grapheme, phoneme or tricky word, pupils will encounter something fresh each lesson.
- Practice – Practice makes perfect. Children practice their new learning through teacher-led activities, multi-sensory games, songs and more!
- Apply – Where the fun begins! Usually involving a reading or writing task, children begin to apply their new knowledge and skillset.
