Description

Reading - word reading

Pupils should be taught to:

  • continue to apply phonic knowledge and skills as the route to decode words until automatic decoding has become embedded and reading is fluent
  • read accurately by blending the sounds in words that contain the graphemes taught so far, especially recognising alternative sounds for graphemes
  • read accurately words of two or more syllables that contain the same graphemes as above
  • read words containing common suffixes
  • read further common exception words, noting unusual correspondences between spelling and sound and where these occur in the word
  • read most words quickly and accurately, without overt sounding and blending, when they have been frequently encountered
  • read aloud books closely matched to their improving phonic knowledge, sounding out unfamiliar words accurately, automatically and without undue hesitation
  • reread these books to build up their fluency and confidence in word reading
  • Reading - comprehension

    Pupils should be taught to:

    • develop pleasure in reading, motivation to read, vocabulary and understanding by:
      • listening to, discussing and expressing views about a wide range of contemporary and classic poetry, stories and non-fiction at a level beyond that at which they can read independently
      • discussing the sequence of events in books and how items of information are related
      • becoming increasingly familiar with and retelling a wider range of stories, fairy stories and traditional tales
      • being introduced to non-fiction books that are structured in different ways
      • recognising simple recurring literary language in stories and poetry
      • discussing and clarifying the meanings of words, linking new meanings to known vocabulary
      • discussing their favourite words and phrases
      • continuing to build up a repertoire of poems learnt by heart, appreciating these and reciting some, with appropriate intonation to make the meaning clear
    • understand both the books that they can already read accurately and fluently and those that they listen to by:
      • drawing on what they already know or on background information and vocabulary provided by the teacher
      • checking that the text makes sense to them as they read, and correcting inaccurate reading
      • making inferences on the basis of what is being said and done
      • answering and asking questions
      • predicting what might happen on the basis of what has been read so far
    • participate in discussion about books, poems and other works that are read to them and those that they can read for themselves, taking turns and listening to what others say
    • explain and discuss their understanding of books, poems and other material, both those that they listen to and those that they read for themselves
