Which letters and sounds are we learning this week?

We have a few graphemes (letters) to get through this week.

Please welcome… H, B, F, FF, L, LL and finally SS.

Your child will need to learn the letter names like you say them when saying the alphabet (A, B, C) as well as the letter sounds. This is the same for the digraphs (2 letter sounds) for example ‘S and S’ make the ‘ss’ sound.

They will likely be presented with both the UPPERCASE (capitals) and lowercase (not capitals). When writing, they may focus on the lowercase formation, to begin with.

Which high-frequency words are we learning this week?

Our common words are ‘had’, ‘him’, ‘is’, ‘but’, ‘big’, ‘back’, ‘of’, ‘if’ and ‘off’. Our tricky words (not phonetic words) are ‘no’, ‘go’ and ‘I’.

Take a look at our High-Frequency Word activities for some ideas.

What can we do with this week’s sounds?

Get those hands ready for some fun, practical activities for our phonic sounds.

What words can I create?

Don’t forget to mix this week’s letters with those letters from previous weeks. That way, you can keep practising them and you can create a wider range of words. For ideas on the simple words, HFW or tricky words you can create with the letters we’ve learned so far, please look at our word lists.
