Daily Phonics Lessons Selected your phase, then choose your letter-sound. Revisit previously learnt letter-sounds and tricky words before practising reading words using the new letter-sound. Children can then apply their new knowl- edge with a caption for dictation and a fully decodable reader for reading practise.

Assessment All children can quickly be assessed using the online assessment tool. Results are recorded and sorted and the bottom 20% of children are targeted for extra keep-up lessons individually tailored for each child. Children can easily be assigned to a new teacher when moving to another year group.

Apply Children can practice and apply their

knowledge with 235 fully decodable online books. Visit: growthecode.org

Growing the Code Alternative spellings are gradually introduced at phase 5. When revisiting the letter-sounds all previously taught spellings are shown, reinforcing and building on knowl- edge.
