Beginner Level
Help your child to become a confident reader in our fun and engaging phonics and reading class. We will become phonics detectives practicing reading confidence through playing phonics games. We will be blending, segmenting and recognising real and nonsense words. We will be identifying missing words in sentences and practising reading sentences with fluency. Each week we focus on sounds from phase 3 to phase 4 phonics. We will look at digraphs and trigraphs such as ch, sh, ng, oa, ai, er, air, nch etc Throughout the weeks we will play games such as ‘I spy’, ‘buried treasure game’, ‘help the aliens to read game’ ‘sentence scramble’ and more! The teacher will model separating the sounds in words and blending these together to read the words. No equipment or materials are needed for each class.
Learning Goals
To gain blending skills to aid reading
To gain segmenting skills to aid spelling

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello everyone! My name is Catherine and I am an experienced primary school teacher from the UK. I have a BA Honours degree in Structured Textiles and a PGCE degree in Primary Education. For the last 7 years I have been a certified teacher of early years education.
I currently teach part time in a primary school. During the rest of the week I teach here on Outschool.
I am up to date with the current curriculum requirements and I have extensive experience of teaching synthetic phonics, mathematics and mindfulness lessons using a scheme called Mind Up in my Primary School.
I absolutely love teaching on this platform and having the opportunity to meet young learners from all over the world. It is my passion to provide fun and engaging learning opportunities whilst helping children to grow in confidence and believe in themselves.
I offer a caring and welcoming learning environment where I help children to feel happy and safe. I am a motivated, enthusiastic and loving teacher who will help your child to grow in confidence whilst having fun learning new things.
My specialism is teaching literacy through synthetic phonics and I am excited to offer a variety of fun phonics lessons in which children can become secure in recognising letters and their sounds. Children will use multi sensory approaches to learn phonics through exciting games and learning activities.
I love spending time outdoors and visiting new places with my family. I am a Mum to a toddler who is turning 3 this year. She loves exploring the world around her and it is beautiful to see her excitement as she is learning about her world.
I am so excited to meet your little ones! Please take a look at the range of classes I offer. I offer both group and individual classes and I am flexible to schedule requests. I look forward to hearing from you soon and meeting your little one. 🥰
