At Little Ems, we introduce children to English through the renowned Read Write Inc. Systematic Synthetic Phonics Program. This forms the cornerstone of English instruction in our two senior classes, providing students with a structured and engaging approach to learning English literacy.
What is Read Write Inc.?
Read Write Inc. is a comprehensive, systematic phonics program developed by Ruth Miskin. This dynamic approach combines reading, writing, comprehension, and spelling into one cohesive learning experience. Children learn to decode English words efficiently through carefully structured lessons while developing their comprehension and writing skills.
Our Implementation
In our 4-5 year olds and 5-6 year olds classes, students engage in daily RWI sessions where they:
– Practice precise pronunciation of pure sounds
– Learn to blend sounds fluently for reading
– Develop writing skills through structured activities
– Build comprehension through engaging discussions
– Work collaboratively in ability-based groups
– Gain confidence through consistent praise and support
Preparing for the Next Step
The RWI program strategically prepares our students for their next educational chapter by:
– Building strong decoding skills essential for independent reading
– Developing writing confidence through regular practice
– Fostering a love of reading through engaging texts
– Establishing solid comprehension strategies
– Creating independent, confident learners ready for primary school
Our experienced teachers carefully monitor each child’s progress, ensuring they master each level before moving forward, creating strong, confident readers and writers ready to embrace their next academic challenge.
