Year 1 Phonics

Date: 23rd Jan 2026 @ 7:50am

This half term in Phonics, we have been focusing on alternative sounds for graphemes already taught. Yesterday, we were looking at alternative for 'ee' being 'ey'. We discussed how the 'ey' would typically come at the end of the word and the 'ee' and 'ea' would usually be in the middle to help us differentiate when spelling. We practised reading lots of words with the diagraph in before attemtping to applying our new knowledge to writing.
