What is Curriculum for
Excellence (CFE)?
• Curriculum reform to make education more
relevant and purposeful.
• Key purposes – to develop responsible citizens,
effective contributors, confident individuals and
successful learners.

tracked within CFE?
• Assessment of what say, write and do
• Differentiated planning for needs of pupils
• Levels:
early level – in the pre-school years and P1
first level - to the end of P4
second level – to the end of P7
third level – to the end of S3
fourth level –broadly equates to Scottish Credit
senior phase – S4 to S6, and college
•
Levels divided into Developing, Consolidating, Secure
In a P1 Week…
• WfL book (class book of the week) is
introduced on a Monday
• Daily literacy activities stem from
the book
• Daily opportunities for numeracy
• P.E. twice a week
• Mrs M Wilson (NCCT RME) and
Mrs Mair (NCCT Music)

Literacy and Language
• Listening and talking
• Phonics – sounds
• Reading – Storyworld and real books
• Writing
What is Phonics?
Phonics teaches children the correspondences
between graphemes in written language and
phonemes in spoken language, and how to use
these to read and spell words.
The children started this learning in nursery,
through listening games and songs where they
have to learn to identify and segment units of
sound in speech, into:
• Words
• Syllables – chat – ter – box!
• Phonemes – sh – o - p
Jolly Phonics
• Letters are introduced as 3 or 4 sounds a week.
• Taught through structured learning and play.
• Each sound is introduced in a multi-sensory way
with a song, action and story (see action sheet).
• Children are taught to write the shape of the
letter with the correct movement (see letter
formation sheet). Children should use a pincer
grip on their pencil.
• As soon as the first few sounds have been taught,
children are taught to blend with them.
e.g. h – a – t = hat sh – o – p = shop
Developing Phonological
Awareness
Through the WfL approach, children are given daily
opportunities to develop their phonological
awareness through everyday games and activities,
including:
• Poems and songs
• Clapping the rhythm in songs or words from book
• Odd one out listening games – cat, mat, car, sat
• Making up nonsense words, rhymes and alliterative
sentences – Sad Sarah sat silently on the sofa.
•
Bingo, snap and lotto sound games
•
Sound feely bags
What are we looking for?
We are helping children to:
• Recognise and generate alliteration – Super Sarah
• Recognise and generate rhyme and rime
– Rime - stale, male, kale (sound and spelt the same)
– Rhyme - hey, may, lei (sound the same but spelt differently)
•
•
•
•
Identify single sounds in spoken words – diff- er - ent
Blend sounds smoothly together – c – a - t
Identify consonant clusters in spoken words - str
Identify long vowel sounds in spoken words – a e i o u
How can I help at home?
• Check your child’s ‘sounds’ homework to know
which sounds have been taught. Then you can
highlight these sounds when you read with your
child.
• With all books, encourage your child to ‘sound
out’ simple unfamiliar words.
• Always pronounce sounds as pure sounds, ‘m’ not
‘muh’, this will make blending much easier.
• Playing games together, with words and
sounds.
