4 Sharing Books  Discuss the front cover and the illustrations.  Talk about the story together – the characters, the sequence of the story, predict what may happen next, relate it to their own experience.  Ask questions about the story – can they remember what happened? Did they enjoy it? Why?

5 Working out words  Use the pictures to help.  Look at the initial letter.  Check the next letter and build up the word ( c-a-t ). cat

6 Further strategies:  Re – read the first part of the sentence again.  Read to the end to guess the correct word, so the sentence makes sense.  Recognise part of the word to help guess the whole word.  Notice key words.

20 Stage 1 – The Beginning of Writing – The child is using letters to represent words. The teacher keeps a record of what she has “written” by writing the words.

21 Stage 2 The child is using initial letters to represent words and has begun to hear and write other sounds in words.

22 Stage 3 The child is using their phonic knowledge to write more words.

23 Stage 4 – The child is using basic sight vocabulary for some words and good phonic knowledge for unknown spellings. A story is developing.

24 Stage 5 – The child is beginning to use sentences and can spell many words correctly. Full stops are used but she is not yet quite sure of beginning a sentence correctly.

25 Supporting your child’s writing Play dough or plasticine Threading beads Finger painting Construction toys – Lego, blocks Jigsaw puzzles Air writing Writing on backs Using chalk, pencils, crayons, felt tips

26 Helping your child to write Value all your child’s writing. Remember! - early writing may look like ‘scribble’ or marks. Help them become aware of the meaning and purpose of writing. Give them the opportunity to write – lists, letters, cards, invitations. Provide paper, crayons, pencils, paint, chalk. Talk about their writing with them.
