As a parent you want to help your child succeed in life and we know that reading is one of the most valuable life skills your child will ever learn. 

So how can you help your child learn to read? 

Teachers train for years in order to gain competency in the teaching of phonics yet you're probably still stuck singing the ABC. If this sounds familiar then this is the course for you. I've summarised my many years of teaching experience, early years specialism and phonics leadership into a course designed to help you understanding the teaching of reading.

This is a basic level course intended for parents of children at preschool/kindergarten or in their first year of education, who want to develop their understanding of phonics. Learn and grow confident in the vocabulary and terminology used to discuss phonic teaching. 

• Understand what teachers are talking about in parents evenings when they refer to phonic learning.
• Feel confident to respond to your child knowledgeably when they tell you they've been learning a new digraph at school!
• Pronounce each phoneme accurately so that you can support your child's learning at home.
• Gain a small bank of activities that support phonics at home without feeling like your forcing 'homework' in your little one!
• Learn why sounds are taught in a particular order rather than the old fashioned ABC
• Gain an insight into how phonics is integrated into the curriculum
