I feel more confident with understanding how children develop speech and language skills and with how speech and language impacts on children’s phonics development I have a growing ‘Toolbox’ of activities I can use in interactions with children to quickly assess areas and skills, such as sequential auditory memory. Our EYFS staff have incorporated practical ideas into their daily interactions with children and KS1 staff have a better understanding of the building blocks needed to support good phonics development- this is something that will be built on next year
