Full Year 1 Literacy Curriculum
A structured, year-long literacy pathway designed to strengthen reading fluency, spelling accuracy, and sentence comprehension.
Children move beyond simple decoding and begin working with more complex spelling patterns, longer words, and meaningful sentence construction.
This stage transforms early readers into confident, capable learners.
Step-by-Step Literacy Curriculum Videos
Follow structured teaching videos that show you exactly what to teach, how to guide learning, and when to introduce more advanced spelling patterns.
Each lesson builds reading strength through:
✔ Long vowel instruction
✔ Digraph, trigraph, and quadgraph learning
✔ Sentence reading development
✔ Sentence writing practice
✔ Reading comprehension support
You are guided step by step so you always know what to teach next.
You’ll know:
✔ What to teach
✔ What to say
✔ What to model
✔ What your child should practise
✔ When to move forward
Professional Sound Modelling Video Library
Watch clear demonstrations of more complex sound patterns, including long vowels and advanced spelling combinations.
These videos focus on:
✔ Long vowel patterns
✔ Digraphs
✔ Trigraphs
✔ Quadgraphs
✔ Word pattern recognition
✔ Spelling pattern application
Each video includes:
✔ Accurate pronunciation modelling
✔ Pattern explanations
✔ Word examples
✔ Activities to deepen understanding
✔ Vocabulary support
This builds the pattern knowledge required for fluent reading and confident spelling.
Sentence Reading & Writing Development
Children move from reading single words to understanding full sentences.
This supports:
✔ Sentence fluency
✔ Grammar awareness
✔ Meaningful reading
✔ Writing confidence
✔ Independent sentence construction
Strong sentence work builds strong comprehension.
This is where reading becomes meaningful—not mechanical.
Reading Comprehension Development
Children learn to understand what they read, not just decode words.
This includes:
✔ Understanding sentence meaning
✔ Discussing vocabulary
✔ Recognising punctuation purpose
✔ Following ideas across sentences
✔ Building thinking skills while reading
This prepares children for real classroom expectations.
Decodable E-Books (Extended Texts)
Children read longer, controlled texts that match their growing knowledge.
These books help:
✔ Build reading stamina
✔ Strengthen fluency
✔ Improve comprehension
✔ Develop reading confidence
This bridges the gap between learning to read and reading independently.
Long Vowel & Spelling Pattern Posters
Visual supports that display spelling patterns clearly and support memory.
These tools help children:
✔ Recognise patterns
✔ Make spelling decisions
✔ Strengthen writing accuracy
✔ Build independence
Pattern awareness is critical at this stage.
Vocabulary & Sight Word Instruction
Words are introduced within meaningful sentences and real reading contexts.
This supports:
✔ Word understanding
✔ Reading comprehension
✔ Sentence building
✔ Academic vocabulary growth
Vocabulary strengthens thinking and communication.
Progress Tracking System
Clear milestones allow parents to measure growth and see visible progress.
You will track:
✔ Pattern mastery
✔ Sentence reading progress
✔ Writing development
✔ Reading confidence
Progress becomes measurable.
Lifetime Access
