Which strategies would an early reader use to tackle the boxed words?
There is a risk, and one fuelled by recent coverage of the Clackmannanshire study, that phonics is somehow seen as a magic bullet which will ensure that every child leaves primary school as an effective and enthusiastic reader We promote phonics as the first and foremost strategy that children employ as they encounter new words. But on its own it simply is not enough. 2005) But on its own it simply is not enough. Ruth Kelly in The Guardian (5 April,
It is a myth that our language is so irregular that phonics is not enough . is a complicated language with its spelling variations and pronunciation variations. This is all the more reason to teach phonics rigorously and systematically from the outset as children are empowered to tackle their complex language so much more efficiently. The process of blending is simple enough and does not vary, but the ideas of tweaking the pronunciation and examining the irregular parts need to be taught. It is a myth that our language is so irregular that phonics is not enough . We do have a phonic language although it Debbie Hepplewhite

Phonemes (sounds) are represented by letters (graphemes) Some of these graphemes are represented by more than one letter Some phonemes can be represented by different graphemes Some graphemes represent more than one phoneme Letters have names
Reading involves changing graphemes to phonemes. This is known as blending Spelling involves changing phonemes to graphemes. This is known as segmenting

An approach to the teaching of reading in which the phonemes associated with particular graphemes are pronounced in isolation and blended together. Synthetic phonics for writing reverses the sequence: children are taught to say the word they wish to write, segment it into its phonemes and say them in turn.
An approach to the teaching of reading in which the phonemes associated with particular graphemes are not pronounced in isolation. Children identify the common phoneme in a set of words. Analytic phonics for writing similarly relies on inferential learning. Children deduce how to spell by comparing to other words that they know
Trying out different spelling choices Knowing the most common spelling choices Knowing where certain spelling choices are likely to occur in a word
List as many words as you can with the /ae/ sound in Group them under the different representations of the /ae/ sound Which are most common?
oi, oy (coin) or, ore, oor, aw (fork) er, ir, ur, or (fern) ow, ou (cow) a-e, ai, ay (baby) ea, ee, ey, y (me) i-e, igh, i, y (tiger) o, oa, o-e, oe, ow (nose) oo, u-e, ue, ew (moon)

Easy words are decodable high frequency words e.g. can, with, back, time Tricky words are non-decodable high frequency words e.g. go, they, have, people
