Early Reading Information for Parents
Our school has chosen Little Wandle Letters and Sounds Revised as our systematic, synthetic phonics (SSP) programme to teach early reading and spelling.
The resources on this page will help you support your child with saying their sounds and writing their letters. There is also some useful information that was presented at our parent workshop to support families to feel confident about supporting their child's reading at home.
