Letter formation
Capital letters are being introduced in term 2. We call them also The Upper CaseWhen using The Lower Case, PRECURSIVE letters are used. That is letters that have exit strokes (flick) to encourage cursive writing at later stages. However children are also exposed to PRINT letters especially in books.Pembroke Primary
BlendingBlending means sounding out the letters
Example: s u n = sunc a t = cat
Our green copybook (called Grammar) has lists of words that children can:SPELL BLEND READPembroke Primary
Decoding - ChoppingDecoding works in the opposite way. When child can blend properly, one can introduce decoding.Give the child a word and ask him/her to give you the sounds in that word. Important that you use a finger for each sound.
Example pin (show 3 fingers) p i n
Sessions from Big Cat Software are being done everyday in class.

Games and Activities that can be done at home:I spy something beginning with .Counting sounds in a wordRhyming words game (example: cat, rat, mat, sat.Take away a sound (example: van -taking away the v and replacing it with f is fan
Pembroke Primary
Tricky/Fast words
In year 1 we have 60 irregular keywords called tricky words. We cannot spell and blend tricky words. They have to be learnt by heart. These are words which are frequently used in books.A sheet with these 60 words was given to all the children in Year 1 and we are shading with a yellow crayon all the new words that we do every week.Pembroke Primary
3rd Term During the 3rd term the children will be doing other 20 sounds.z, w, oo (as in wood), oo (as in cool), ie, v, y, ch, sh, th (as in that), th (as in thank), ng, x, qu, ar, er, ou, oi, ue and or.
