Get an in depth look at the best way to teach synthetic phonics systematically with Jolly Phonics. In this workshop participants will: learn about the 5 skills that students must master in order to begin reading; learn the stories and gestures that support learning the letter sounds; gain an understanding of what synthetic phonics is and how it compares to other methods of teaching reading and writing; and share practical activity ideas for in the classroom and at home.
We will also look at the transition from phonics to reading and how to build on the basic phonics that students learn in their first year as learners transition into Jolly Grammar.
