Reading
Phonetics & Letter Identification
Our reading course for younger children begins by identifying areas of weakness and offers tuition in phonics, practising skills such as phonics (by identifying, blending and segmenting sounds), letter identification, word patterns and sight words as recommended by the National Curriculum.
Vocabulary & Comprehension Skills
The course builds upon this foundation by developing vocabulary, comprehension skills and accuracy of words in order for students to engage in books and learn to love reading. Advice is also given on books to encourage progress in reading as well as enjoyment.
Writing
We will help the young student to write their letters and numbers and practice until they feel confident. From there we will help them form words. Writing skills will develop alongside reading and recognition of words. We will also introduce parts of speech and encourage actual pieces of writing, with sentences punctuated with capital letters, full stops, question marks and exclamation marks.
