Guidance & Reception Daily Planning Introduction

L & S

Smart Kids

Teach letter recognition and recall for a new letter-sound (GPC)

Smart Kids Letters and Sounds is a complete phonics resource to support children. It presents systematic, synthetic phonic work as the prime approach to decoding print. Daily teaching sessions teach the main grapheme-phoneme correspondences (GPCs) of English (the alphabetic principle) in a clearly defined, incremental sequence and begin by introducing a defined group of GPCs that enable children to read and spell many words early on. Children progressing from simple to more complex phonic knowledge and skills, cumulatively covering all the major grapheme-phoneme correspondences in English, learning to read printed words by identifying and blending (synthesising) individual phonemes, from left to right all through the word.

DfE-validated

Letters and Sounds

1. Display the picture side of the mnemonic card.

Pronounce each letter

2. Say the pure sound, saying the mnemonic at the end (e.g. sssss snake)

sound clearly and

3. If any children in the room have names with the sound in them, say their names, accentuating the sound.

Phonics lessons build from 10-minute lessons, with additional daily oral blending games, to full-length 30-minute lessons as quickly as possible.
