  1. St George’s School and ….. Read Write INC – a new approach to teaching synthetic phonics.

  2. What is Read Write Inc and why are we adopting it at our school? New Ofsted Inspection Criteria Formative assessment to meet need Matched guided reading texts Children grouped according specific need and to the correct level of challenge Regular and systematic teaching focused not only on decoding but comprehension, fluency and expression. All staff fully trained and monitored by a Reading Manager Groups will be taught by a different member of the Read Write Inc Team each term

  3. The Theory The Simple View of Reading -Rose Report (2006) -Children need both good word recognition and good oral language comprehension. -‘Learn to read’ (by 7) ‘Read to learn’ (carries on) -Use of talk

  4. The Five Principles • Pace Complete programme quickly No downtime in lesson-full involvement-energetic and rigorous Silent Signals-Stop/ Magnet/ My turn your turn/ Perfect partner position/ 1,2,3 • Praise- a lot Praise phrases and actions • Purpose Set purpose at start Modelling-behaviours needed are modelled for effective partner work • Participation All children take part in all of the lesson-choral work My turn your turn Partner work-a great deal of time is spent modelling and praising this behaviour • Passion Show how much you love teaching lessons

  5. Assessment and Groupings • Sound and Word Entry Assessment • Children organised into broad Speed Sounds groups – mixing different years if necessary (every need at every level) • Reception Class only split after Christmas • Children are reassessed regularly – the right pace for every child (every eight weeks)

  6. Timetabling • Daily phonics • Guided reading 3 times a week • Extended writing linked to previous teaching

  7. Speed Sounds Not Jolly Phonics Pure Sounds Bouncy/stretchy sounds Complex sounds

  8. Some lingo……. • New phrases for each sound • Fred talk (meet Fred) green words and red words • Special friends • It’s all in the eyes

  9. Reading Books Guided reading scheme runs alongside lessons Means children can decode books Linked real storybooks – provides context and improves vocabulary Up to 9 reading activities for each book

  10. Praise Praise phrases: Used to acknowledge brilliant effort and good partner work It’s not just good or great, it’s… super, smashing, brilliant, super sounds, fantastic, phenomenal Fred talk, wondrous, rapid reading, wicked words. Praise actions: Used to keep the children energetic and to praise excellent behaviour and hard work Marshmallow claps, whoosh, firework, thumbs up, Elvis, microwaves, high fives.

  11. To help us…and your child.. • Let us teach the new sounds first • Practise the sounds that your child has learnt at school (your child will be able to tell you what they are)
