Grown-Ups Corner - Day 8 Preparation
In the reception classroom, you can follow this 10-day plan to get to know the children and observe how they learn.
In pre-school, you can spread this out over several weeks! There’s no rush to introduce Sound Pics (graphemes), and you don’t need to follow the plan with a large group. Ideally, activities should be done with just a few children at a time. You may start to form groups of children at similar stages of understanding—some may be using only the Phonemies for activities, while others also incorporate the Sound Pics. As with most learning within the Speech Sound Pics (SSP) Approach, the same activities are used but adapted to different skill levels. This ensures that even in a classroom setting, we provide differentiation and a personalised learning experience.
