What is a sound? What is a letter? Did you know there’s a difference between sounds and letters? 

In this video we discuss Phonics – what phonics is, and information about letters and sounds. 

Phonological awareness is an important first step on your child’s journey toward a lifetime love of reading, writing, and learning! Phonological awareness is the ability to hear, recognise, and manipulate the sounds in spoken language.

This week we discuss phonological awareness – what it is and ways to grow your child’s phonological awareness skills at home.
