Tiptoe Primary School - Monster Phonics at Tiptoe

 

 

Monster Phonics is a whole school systematic synthetic phonics scheme. It teaches children to read by enabling them to identify the letters and to blend the sounds together to read the words.

It is a really fun way to learn phonics since it is multi – sensory.

Sounds are categorized into 10 colour groups and each colour has a corresponding monster character.

Monster phonics is a highly advanced scheme that creates interest and engagement from the children.

Children at Rivington start their monster phonics learning in Nursery and continue through into KS2.

Reading in Key Stage 1 and 2

At Rivington Foundation Primary School Primary School, in Key Stage 1 and 2, we teach Reading using ‘Curriculum by Unity Partnership’ (CUSP). CUSP is an evidence informed, sequenced curriculum, which provides a cohesive approach to the teaching of Reading from Year 1 up to Year 6.

There is a principle focus on fluency and vocabulary; teaching children the skills and strategies they need, not only to access the Reading curriculum, but so they can also apply these skills in a range of contexts to access the whole primary curriculum, and onwards. This is achieved through a diverse range of literature (see our literature spine), including whole novels, picture books, poetry and specifically written extracts so that children are exposed to a wide range of different texts. CUSP has selected these so that all children are exposed to a range of high quality literature that ‘gives every child a mirror in which to see themselves and offers a window to children to see a world beyond their own’. This complements our ethos at Rivington, where all children are encourage to ‘Live life in its fullest; Making a Difference Along the Way’.
