PHONICS
Phase 5
11/05/2020 Week 5
We are continuing to revisit Phase 5 phonic sounds. As these sounds are digraphs (contain two letters) it can be a challenge for the children to remember them, especially when later on in Phase 5 when we will be learning alternative spellings for the same sound (e.g. ai, ay, ey etc.)
You can visit Phonicsplay, a website that is used often in school, and access it during this period for free using the following login and username. The activities to look for in phonicsplay are highlighted in blue.
