Fred Talk
Once the children know the pure sounds, we teach them to blend sounds to read words. We also teach children to spell the words they learn to read.
We use Fred Talk to help children read and spell words.
Fred is a frog who can only speak in sounds, and we call this Fred Talk. For example ‘m’ ‘a’ ‘t’, ‘l’ ‘u’ ‘n’ ‘c’ ‘h’.
He helps children sound out words so they can read and spell.
MTYT some examples with the parents. For example ‘m’ ‘a’ ‘t’ mat, ‘s’ ‘a’ ‘t’ sat.
We use Fred Fingers to help children sound out words to spell easily.
It means they do not have to memorise lists of spelling words.
It is a tool so they will be able to spell any word.
