Hello friends! It's Molly, here to share with you about our wonderful phonics class. English is a beautiful language with 26 letters and 45 sounds, and it's important for children to identify these sounds in order to become confident and fluent readers.

We will be focusing on those tricky letter pairs like OO, AI, AU, EA, ED, IGH, TH, PH, KN, and NG. Did you know CH makes three sounds? Did you know SI, TI, and CI make the sound 🤫 /sh/? Mastering phonics will make reading so much easier for your child. 

The video walks you through a few class slides, giving you a preview of our in-class activities and an idea of the Boom Cards available for practice after class.
