Dear Parents As the students progress in their work they should attempt to read text independently, and show comprehension of what they have read. Year 2 expectations in the Cambridge standards include the following vital reading skills:
I am including some information of the Jolly Phonics sounds that students in Year 2 should know in their reading and writing. Most students are familiar with Phase 2, but it gets trickier in Phase 3 and Phase 5. The students should work at correctly identifying the sounds when segmenting a word, e.g. boat as b-oa-t. For Phase 2 phonics click here. For Phase 3 phonics click here. For Phase 5 phonics click here. For a summarized version of Phase 2, 3 and 5 click here.
For a list of sight words to practice at home, I highly recommend Fry's First 100 Words.
Following that, try Fry's Second 100 Words; and for our Reading Gurus - give Fry's Third 100 Words a go! Find ideas here, and more here to help your child learn sight words at home. Regards, Ms. Heidi Comments are closed.
