Phonics is the teaching of letter sounds - a as in 'ant', not A as in 'ape'. It is also the teaching of phonological awareness. These are the underlying skills which enable children to apply their knowledge of sounds (phonics) to reading words and sentences.Our classes run during term-time only. Classes are once per week and run for 45 minutes. We prefer parents/carers to leave their children where possible during this time. Cost per term is $260 (specials are regularly on offer). To gain maximum benefit from our course, we encourage parents to enrol their children for at least 3 terms (starting Term 1), although enrolment starting in Term 2 or 3 is also possible. Our classes are small (2 teachers/max. 10 children) with an emphasis on fun and the children just happen to be learning at the same time! The class format includes a story, worksheets, activities and games, all centred around the weekly sound/sounds.
