Pre-read Words

Age: 3.5–6 years old
Class Size: 8 maximum
Class Duration: 1 hour 30 mins

In the Pre-read Words programme, our students begin to identify middle sounds (short vowels) and learn how to add, remove, blend, and segment sounds to form words (up to 5-6 sounds).  Learning to segment will develop their phonetic spelling skills.  Our students will also be introduced to sight words in order to build their ability to start reading.

Through interactive games and collaborations with peers, our students will learn how to apply their knowledge of letter-sound relationships which includes consonant blends to correctly pronounce written words. This gives them the ability to recognise familiar words quickly, and figure out the pronunciation of unfamiliar words as they begin to read simple sentences and short vowel paragraphs.  This will carve the path in the development of emergent reading skills.
