Set 2 Sounds

Now that your child knows all of their single sounds, some simple 'special friends' and has learnt to blend simple words, they will now learn:

  • To read and recognise Set 2 Speed Sounds: ay, ee, igh, ow (as in blow), oo (as in look), ar, or, air, ir, ou (as in out), oy
  • To read words containing these sounds
  • To read a wider range of 'red words' (words that cannot be read using phonics skills)
  • To read Pink, Orange and Yellow Storybooks, building speed and fluency

Each sound is linked to a picture hook and rhyme to help your child learn and remember the sounds.
