Phonics at College Fields
Maria Montessori was one of the first educators to believe in the use of phonics as a way of teaching our children to read and write. It is an approach that Montessori schools and nurseries have been using for years and is now the preferred method of teaching children to read and write in the National Curriculum and Early Years Foundation Stage. Learning the sounds of the letters (phonemes) will enable your child to blend or ‘sound out’ new words when they encounter them. The following link shows you how to make the sounds of the letters as you learn at home with your child. There is also an app link which has been recommended.

At College Fields we pride ourselves on creating and facilitating the best transitions to schools. We have great links with Preshute, Great Bedwyn, Easton Royal, Kennet Valley and St Marys. Every year we invite the reception class teacher in to visit and observe your child in play, the teacher can see your child when they are confident and comfortable playing with their peers . We will communicate in depth with their teacher to make sure they know your child and know how to welcome them to your chosen school.
