About this session
The session explains the rationale behind using an arc to support the learning of phonics to read and spell. It is particularly useful for pupils struggling to understand and apply digraphs and have effective strategies for multisyllabic words.

Are they confused by phonics and getting in a bit of a muddle with it all?
