Phonics in Year 1
Julie Phillippo
Bracknell Forest
Family Learning Team
You will learn:
• How to use phonics to blend and
segment a word
• What children will be learning in year 1
phonics lessons
• What you can do at home to support
their learning in fun ways
Phonics – a few things you
should know…
• Phonics is about linking the sounds of spoken
language to written letters (graphemes)
• A phoneme is a unit of sound
• Spoken English is divided into about 42
phonemes.
• Phonics schemes are based on these 42
phonemes.
Segmenting the sounds
• In order to spell, children must learn to
hear the sounds within words.
• I want to write about a
• I must hear the word in my head and
split it up into individual sounds.
In order to read, children need
to learn to blend the sounds
together they see on the page.

it.)

Phase 4 (taught towards the end
of reception)

frog
eg clock, train, fresh
f–r–o–g

earlier phases.
Challenge: write a list of as many words as

Year 1 Phonics Screening Test
• An assessment of the child’s ability to decode
words using phonics.
• The aim is to pick up any children who are
struggling with phonics, so that they can be
given extra support.
• All schools must set the test in a specified
week in June. (End of year 1)
• It takes 4-8 minutes.
• Children are asked to read a list of 40 words –
some are real words and some are non-words.
Games and activities to play at
home
• Play with magnetic lower case letters – write
a simple sentence or a word for your child to
find on the fridge!
• Use post-it notes or a white board to write on
• Have fun with writing words in shaving foam
on the bath tiles
• Hide some letters around the garden or house
– can your child collect the right letters to
make a 3 or 4 letter word? (stop, spot, frog, green, track,
spin, flag, wind, lamp, nest, sink, hunt, bank, toast, chimp, thank, spoon)
• For children who like trains or cars –
blutac some letters onto toy vehicles;
can they ‘park’ them so that they spell a
word?
• Cut up a word from your child’s spelling
list – can they put it back together
again?
• Play Full Circle Use magnetic letters to
make a word. Change one letter each
time to make a new word until you get
back to the original e.g. park-part-tartdart-dark-park-full circle!
