Reception Phonics at Home

At Riddlesden St Mary’s we believe that all our children can become fluent readers and writers. This is why we teach reading through Little Wandle Letters and Sounds Revised, which is a systematic and synthetic phonics programme.

Phonics is taught daily in Reception and is such an important part of the day. Phonics teaches children how to read and spell words.

On this page you will find lots of resources to support your child at home with their phonics.

Miss Halliday, Mr Midgley and Miss Ah have uploaded some videos for your child to access at home to support their phonics development. If you require any further information or have any questions, please get in touch.
