Learning To Read & Write - Pack 2 (keywords, common blends, high frequency words)

10 activities to further develop their reading and writing for Early Years and Key Stage 1.

Covers keyword requirements form the National Curriculum. Helping to develop reading, writing, punctuation and spelling skills.

The key words provided can be cut out and used as flash cards to help children read and recognise the word. They can use each word individually to practise writing it.

The sound cards can be cut out and used as flashcards. Continually repeating sounds can help children automatically read words that contain these sounds. Once they can do this, children should be encouraged to read the word straight off without sounding out.

Making rhyming word lists can help children with their spellings.

For each word they write, they need to:
- know what they want to write
- spell the word / words e.g. by sounding out
- associate the sounds in each word to a letter/ letters
- hold a pencil
- use the pencil to form the letters
