Phonics Classes in Zug
Sound English Foundations

 During our Phonics Classes at Shooting Stars, we follow the U.K.'s Letters and Sounds Programme, providing a trusted and systematic foundation in phonics. We use our expertise to make the reading and writing lessons suitable for children attending Swiss Kindergartens and primary schools.

​

Our Phonics education starts with the children in Shooting Stars Preschool, when they begin with Phase 1 Phonics.  This includes developing listening skills, learning about rhythm and rhyme, alliteration and starting to blend and segment orally.

 

Our programme helps young children:

​

• Recognise and distinguish sounds in spoken words

• Learn letter-sounds correspondence using trusted UK-based schemes such as Letters and Sounds and Jolly Phonics

• Develop blending and segmenting skills to read and spell words

• Build confidence through songs, games and playful reading and writing activities​​​

• Learn to read fluently and predict evenets, discuss stories and retell information

• Form letters correctly, build vocabulary and apply spelling rules

• Write for various purposes such as stories, poetry and non-fiction

• Learn about sentence structure, punctuation and grammar

• Develop a love of reading by exposing them to a wide range of literature, poetry and non-fiction
