Please could children complete at least one Phase 5c phonics game a day. Feel free to choose a sound for them to focus on. We have covered all of the sounds now but revision for:  oi, ar, ow, ear, air and ur would be beneficial.

I’d like to introduce children to the Monster Phonics scheme. If you could have and go and become familiar with the characters, that would be fantastic. Similar to Phonics Play, they are offering free games at the moment.
