Jolly Phonics Evening for Parents
Dear Parent / Guardian
As you may know, we have recently started a new scheme for teaching phonics in Foundation Stage and Key Stage 1. The scheme is called Jolly Phonics and has proved very successful in teaching children the key letter sounds and how they are used to spell and read words. The scheme works by linking the sounds to movements which help children to segment and blend new words.
We would like to invite you to come along and learn the sounds and actions so that they can be implemented at home. They are a lot of fun and make reading and writing more enjoyable for your child. The evening will take place on Tuesday 13th November at 3.30p.m. – 4.15p.m. There will be a teacher to supervise children in another room whilst the meeting takes place.
I appreciate that some may not be able to attend, but what you learn will be extremely valuable in aiding your child’s progression.
We look forward to seeing you.
