A typical phonics session is:
- All children sat on the carpet and flash through our tricky words
- Flash through sounds that we have covered
- Focus on one sound for that day
- All children go to tables and write words with the sound of the day in
- 2x groups then work with an adult with their RWI books and the 2 groups are completing an independent task. The groups will then swap over the next day.
