Instrumental Sounds Day in EYFS1A
Our children explored instrumental sounds as part of Phase 1 Phonemic Awareness, an essential foundation of the EYFS Literacy curriculum. Through tapping, shaking, playing and listening carefully, they strengthened key skills such as sound discrimination, attention, and auditory memory. These experiences support early reading by helping children tune into the sounds around them before learning letter–sound correspondences. The activity also linked beautifully to Communication & Language and Expressive Arts & Design, giving our little learners the chance to explore music, express themselves and enjoy learning through play.
