Yeo Moor Primary School

In school we teach phonics using the letters and sounds programme, supported by the use of Jolly Phonics kinaesthetic actions & stories. As children move through the early stages of acquiring phonics, they practice by reading texts which are entirely decodable for them from the Rigby Star Phonics, Dandelion & Jelly and Bean schemes.

Once children have secure knowledge of letters / sounds correspondences and can blend words confidently, they access our Book Banded reading scheme which has books from various published scheme and is designed to give children experience of a variety of reading genres. There are fiction and non-fiction books within each level. In addidtion, children access Bug Club e-books at school and at home from a personalised selection made by the teacher.

All children are encouraged to select books from the classroom, library or home to share with their parents to encourage a love of reading. Once children can fluently read and have a good understanding, they self select book for independent reading from the school library or from home.
