Learning goals
- We are learning to use most letter-sound matches including vowel diagraphs, less common long vowel patterns, e.g. ight, consonant clusters and silent letters, e.g. knife, thumb, when reading and writing words of one or more syllables.
- We are learning to understand that a sound can be represented by various letter combinations, e.g. the long ‘a’ sound in stay, weight, able, make.
- We are learning to understand how to use letter-sound relationships and less common letter patterns to spell words.
- We are learning to understand how to use letter-sound relationships and less common letter patterns to spell words.
- We are learning to use phonological and morphological knowledge to read and write words with multiple syllables, complex letter patterns and known prefixes and suffixes.
- We are learning to use phonic knowledge to read and write words with multiple syllables and complex letter patterns.
