PSC top tips
Read our recommendations on how to make the biggest difference in the run up to the PSC.
New animated films – perfect PSC practice
A daily Word Challenge for your class!
In Set 2 Word Challenge on the Virtual Classroom, children practise the ‘Special Friends, Fred Talk’ routine with a mix of real and nonsense words containing Set 1 and 2 sounds. There is plenty of practice of reading words containing four and five sounds.
Set 3 Word Challenge will follow after Easter.
These replace the ‘Special Friends, Fred Talk’ films in your Virtual Classroom.
Use these daily five-minute films when children know their Set 2 sounds – you could send them home for extra practice too.
