Phonics plays a vital role in laying a strong foundation for children\u2019s reading and literacy skills. Today, our Early Years and Lower Primary educators participated in an insightful and engaging phonics training workshop led by Stephen Rickard, Creative Director at Ransom Publishing.<\/div>\n

Through expert guidance and engaging teaching techniques, Stephen introduced effective strategies and innovative approaches for strengthening phonics instruction and enhancing young learners\u2019 reading proficiency. The workshop also focused on the importance of conducting a Running Reading Record (RRR) to monitor and assess students\u2019 reading progress. Teachers were guided on how to conduct an RRR effectively, observe students\u2019 reading behaviours, identify areas for improvement, and calculate reading accuracy percentages to gain a clearer understanding of each learner\u2019s reading development. The interactive session featured practical demonstrations, hands-on learning, and informative Q&A sessions, equipping our educators with valuable tools and strategies to apply in their classrooms. Our teachers concluded the session with a deeper understanding of phonics and reading assessment, along with renewed enthusiasm and confidence to nurture strong, fluent, and confident readers from the earliest stages of learning.<\/div>\n
