Phonics and Reading
Phonics and Early Reading
We want children to leave Silvertrees with a love of reading and the ability to decode and understand texts they read.
What we do in school:
Every child at Silvertrees receives a daily phonics or spelling lesson. We use our own synthetic systematic phonics programme based on Letters and Sounds. In Year 2 we use the Rising Stars Spelling programme.
- Children are taught the sounds and how to read and write these in words
- These are the sound:
- Children read in groups and individually with adults throughout the week
- Children bring home a ‘Guided Reading Books’, ‘Home Readers’ and Library Books

How you can help at home
