Pip and Pap Year 2 Phonics Workshop
Year 2 parents and pupils worked together yesterday to read Purple Phase Book 7 - Abracadabra!
They focused on alternative pronunciations for graphemes already met, such as:
<ch> making a /k/ sound in words like 'chemical'
<g> making a /j/ sound in words like 'stage'
<ow> making an /oa/ sound in words like 'show'
Pupils read the story to their parents with beautiful expression and prosody, before answering comprehension questions on what they had read.
At the end of the session, pupils and parents made their own magic trick - a rabbit popping out of a hat!
We run Pip and Pap phonics workshops in Years R-2, every other week. Please ask your child's class teacher for more details.
