Today we took a look at Structured Literacy - Phonics Plus which can be found using TKI
The first 3 Parts of Phonics Plus are:
- Learning the Code (Sounding out words),
- Phonemics Awareness (Relationship between letters and sounds and manipulating them)
- Making Meaning - You can use Ready to Read Phonics
- Thinking Critically - School Journals
The Assessment found on TKI shows how we gather data and remember to compare apples with apples. In other words, if you use a phonic plus test use that again to evaluate later.
Phonics Plus works well being taught in groups (3)
Teach sounds without the extra vowel sound d = 'd', not de or m = 'm', not mi or ma
Books practise sounds already exposed to so students can keep moving through, and don't need to be held up because they didn't get one sound.
Vocabulary - Other words that mean bad - sore, hurt
Put them into the sentence in the book.
Can you show me mat/ make the word mat (using letter blocks)
If you can spell mat show me pat
Praise, Praise, Praise - reinforces they can do it.
Scope = Summary of what is to be taught
Sequence = order to teach sounds e.g. Kākano Phase Overview
Doing the same activity using a different method helps maintain focus - it is about the sounds.

Blackboard
Alphabet blocks
Magnetic Letters
Blank dots
Shared Books can also be used to reinforce learning.
