3.Fun with Phonics
To read English well and have strong communication skills, it is crucial to master the sounds of English letters and understand how they work together. By learning to connect sounds to groups of letters through phonics, students can build a solid foundation that benefits them in the following ways:- Understand how groups of letters relate to each other
- Learn how to read any word by breaking down words into sounds
- Build letter and word recognition
- Learn the correct pronunciations of words
By providing children with these building blocks for success, phonics can help children develop their linguistic mastery confidently and more effectively.At Lorna Whiston, our Fun with Phonics class is a unique English enrichment programme designed to give young learners a head start in reading, writing and spelling. To capture the attention of our young students, passionate native-speaking teachers teach Fun with Phonics through a range of fun, multisensory activities. Puppets, puzzles, stories, songs, rhymes, art and craft activities, and phonic games all feature regularly, ensuring that our students learn phonics effectively and efficiently.We focus on the following in our Fun with Phonics programmes:- Creating an engaging environment for your child to develop confidence in reading and spelling
