Guest Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Hi all, I use the Jolly Phonics as a basis for my planning, but just wondered if you have any more creative ways of teaching phonics? I have rhymes, finger puppets, letter fans and we also make lots of cutting and pasting activities - but none of these are very exciting for the children. We have a class of 36 reception children altogether - 24 in one room and 12 in my room. My 12 are joined by 4 Y1s who need more practical experiences! I've only been teaching reception since January and as I have the smaller group of children who need much more repetition, I'm running out of ideas. Any thoughts? Thanks everyone, Viki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
