Ever wondered what we do in our Prep Reading and Writing sessions? 🤔✨
Each session is packed with targeted, hands-on activities designed to build our students' foundational literacy skills.
Here is what a typical session might look like:
Phonological Awareness: We tune our ears into sounds by rhyming words, blending sounds to make words, and chopping up (or segmenting) words into their individual sounds.
Phonics: We practise all of the sounds we have learnt so far at school and learn some new ones, too!
Reading Games: We play fun games to practise our word reading... you can probably hear their excitement out on the street when we are playing these games!! 🎲🗣️
Concepts of Print, Sentence Building & Writing: We order words to make a sentence, and then practise our letter formation when writing words. We also look closely at how print works by finding things like the first letter of a sentence, a full stop, a word, or a space.
To finish last week's session, my students put the words "This is a spider" in the correct order. Then, using their phonics and segmenting skills, they had a go at writing the word "web" independently! 🕷️🕸️
If your Prep child would benefit from practising these skills in a low-pressure, supportive, and SUPER fun space, head to the link in our bio 🩵
Prep Reading & Writing sessions are held Wednesdays 3:30 - 4:30pm.
