Little Owls Phonics
Phase 1 provides a wealth of listening activities, including using their listening skills to hear sounds in the environment, recognise instrumental sounds and use body percussion. Children will enjoy playing with sounds and words as they develop their language skills, spotting rhythm, rhyme and alliteration in songs and stories they hear. They will begin to explore the skill of oral blending and segmenting. For some children this will be a skill they master quickly; for others, they may need support to listen carefully to the sounds and tune in their ears to be able to put the phonemes together and hear the word that the adult is segmenting. This phase forms the bedrock of developing children’s early reading ready for when they start school.
