Phonics screening test
Below I have attached a few example of previous Phonics screening tests. You will see that there are some real and some alien words. I have also attached a copy of phase 3 and phase 5 flashcards.
General Information
- PE days are Wednesdays (Bolton Council PE coach) and Thursdays.
- Reading books are changed on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays. (Please see front of you child's reading log for their change day).
- It would be helpful if you read with your child at home at least three times a week.
- Spellings are sent home with homework on Fridays. They will then be tested the following Friday.
- Homework is due in every Wednesday, or before if completed.
Our Phonics and Reading schemes are as follows:-
We follow the Letters and Sounds scheme using resources from Phonics Play for teaching. Some of the games can be accessed at home to for extra practice!
We use Oxford Reading Tree, Rigby Rocket, Big Cat and Planet X for our home and guided reading schemes
