Reading and Phonics Schemes

At Winnersh, we want every child to be a successful, fluent reader and writer by the end of Key Stage One. We believe that this is achievable through a combination of strong, high quality, discrete phonics teaching combined with regular, daily opportunities for developing reading skills. The teaching of phonics is a key strategy that is used to help our children to read, write and spell. 

 

 

Phonics is taught in a highly structured programme of daily lessons in groups differentiated according to children’s phonic awareness and development. At Winnersh, we teach phonics through a programme called Monster Phonics. It is a multi-sensory approach using colour to help children remember sounds. The sounds are categorised into ten colour groups and each colour has a corresponding monster character. Each session gives an opportunity for children to revisit their previous experience, be taught new skills, practise together and apply what they have learned.
