English

At Waterhouses Primary School and Nursery we use the Twinkl phonic programme (DFE approved scheme) to develop early Reading skills.  In Year 2 we build on this by using Accelerated Reader to help our children become confident, fluent readers. We have chosen to use the Talk4Writing approach to develop children’s reading and writing skills. This enables them to practice orally and to read and write for a range of purposes and audiences.
