Phonics each term
What we learn in Pre-School
Autumn term
Listening and attention skills- We play games, and go on listening walks to hear the different sounds in the environment.
Spring term
Rhyming and initial sounds- We begin to focus further on learning new nursery rhymes and then progress onto making single words rhyme such as our name.
Summer term
Alliteration and orally blending sounds- Here we focus on the initial sounds of our names and look at what other words sound the same i.e. Silly Sally. We then begin to orally blend sounds into simple words i.e. c a t cat
