Getting Started with Chapter One: A Deeper Dive into Phonics and How Reading is Taught
Mon 30 Sep 2024 9:30 AM - 10:30 AM BST
Online, Zoom
Description
Know your digraphs from your trigraphs and why they matter! Feel confident talking to your student about phonics.
This lively 45-minute session will help you feel really comfortable with phonics and boost your understanding of how young children are now taught to read in years 1 and 2 of primary school. The workshop will be delivered by Emma Spiers aka The Learning Lady, a reading and phonics expert with over 20 years of advisory, inspection, leadership and teaching experience.
This session is part of a series of learning and development workshops designed to support our online reading volunteers. All sessions will last approximately 45 minutes with additional time for questions and are suitable for both new volunteers and returning volunteers.
Please note: Last year's Expert View sessions (except Safeguarding) are available on-demand in the Knowledge Base, but we still encourage you to join live this year. Real-time participation offers greater benefits and the opportunity to ask your own questions.
