Reading at St Aloysius
Early Reading and Phonics
The teaching of reading at St Aloysius begins in our EYFS, with our children sharing books with adults and listening to many stories each day. The children access daily phonics lessons, as developing secure phonetic awareness and the ability to accurately segment and blend phonemes and graphemes is the first step towards fluency.
Read Write Inc is our scheme for the daily, focused teaching of systematic synthetic phonics in Reception and Key Stage 1. We send RWI Book Bag Books home, to ensure the children are reading books containing sounds they know and have been taught.
