Parent and Carers Workshop—Phonics Information Session
At Eastlands, we use Read Write Inc (RWI) to teach Phonics. On Monday 14th October, we would like to invite Parents/Carers of children in both Reception and Year 1 to a short information session. This will be at 3:30pm in the school hall, led by Mrs Hope (English Lead) and Mrs Birnie. Within this session, you will find out how we teach reading, what your child will learn, phonics groupings explained, how to use the books that
children bring home and ask any questions you may have about Phonics. Please see the website for more information: https://www.eastlandsprimaryschool.co.uk/children-1/curriculum-1/phonics. We look forward to seeing you then
