Read Write Inc. Phonics
Transform your teaching of early reading and writing
Read Write Inc. Phonics teaches children to read accurately and fluently with good comprehension. They learn to form each letter, spell correctly, and compose their ideas step-by-step.
Children learn the English alphabetic code: first they learn one way to read the 40+ sounds and blend these sounds into words, then learn to read the same sounds with alternative graphemes.
They experience success from the very beginning. Lively phonic books are closely matched to their increasing knowledge of phonics and ‘tricky’ words and, as children re-read the stories, their fluency increases.
Along with a thought-provoking introduction, prompts for thinking out loud and discussion, children are helped to read with a storyteller’s voice.
4 to 8-year-old children
1 hour a day
Taught by teachers and TAs
4 to 30 grouped according to progress
Half-termly assessments
The children write every day, rehearsing out loud what they want to say, before spelling the words using the graphemes and ‘tricky’ words they know.
They practise handwriting every day: sitting at a table comfortably, they learn correct letter formation and how to join letters speedily and legibly.
Children’s composition (ideas, vocabulary and grammar) is developed by drawing on their own experiences and talking about the stories they read.
Our dynamic trainers demonstrate the activities step-by-step, using footage of real lessons. They help you practise and prepare before teaching and use management strategies to engage children and speed up progress.
Read Write Inc. Phonics is a two-day training – either in-school for up to 45 staff or as a regional training for smaller groups.
We now offer six places on Read Write Inc. Phonics and two Development Days for £2,300 plus VAT. More information is available in Ruth's blogs and news.
