Teaching Curriculum
Phonics
At Burnley Brow, we follow Letters and Sounds when teaching Phonics. Children begin learning Phonics in Foundation Stage and continue this into Key Stage One and beyond. Children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 are taught Phonics for twenty minutes each day. The purpose of these sessions is for children to understand the sounds that different letters or groups of letters make and to use this knowledge to help them to read and write words by segmenting and blending.
