Jolly Phonics

We have been learning a sound a day since the beginning of school.  The children know the Jolly Jingle (the little song), the action, the sound or phoneme and the letter or combination of letters name.  We have about a three quarters of the sounds learnt so far.  The children are getting very fast at recognising them and knowing whether they are a vowel or not.  They also know what happens when there are two vowels together.  "When two vowels go walking the first one does the talking and says its own name."  e.g. ea  are both vowels so the sound it makes is 'ee'.

I hope you enjoy this movie.  Some children were in and out at reading and some others are participating from their chairs.
