Literacy
There are two Early Learning Goals within this curriculum area
1. Reading
2. Writing
At Castlechurch we follow 'Letters and Sounds' to teach our phonics curriculum. Each sound has a visual picture clue to support children in learning them. When we begin our phonics sessions we will teach a new sound each day.
We also introduce a 'Cursive style' handwriting in the Reception classes. Each letter has a rhyme to support the children when learning to write them.
Further details will be included in our phonics workshop.
