This video explains the teaching for mastery approach at Great Crosby and includes examples of the representations and language used. There are also examples of children's work and strategies.

As the children missed the year 1 Phonics Screening Check they will be required to take this after the October half term.

Here is a video showing an example of the phonics screening check

  Please watch this video to familiarise yourself with the correct pronunciation of the phonemes and digraphs the children are learning. It is very important that the children use these correctly in their reading sessions to help them segment and blend the words they are attempting to decode.
