Phonics

Through years of teaching experience in KS1, we've created a specialised phonics programme that ensures your child reaches the expected standard of the phonics screening check.

We focus on:

• Developing your child's understanding of phonemes, graphemes and digraphs 
• Encouraging correct letter formation 
• Teaching blending, segmenting and decoding through engaging activities 
• Common exception spelling words 
• Writing simple sentences

Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar

At Target Tutoring, we dedicate time for teaching spelling, punctuation and grammar (SPAG). Knowledge of SPAG gives your child the tools to communicate with others, articulate their ideas and produce exceptional writing. 
Our SPAG sessions include:

• Regular spelling tests 
• A focus on common exception words and spelling rules
• Short, engaging activities to consolidate learning
• Explicit teaching of punctuation and grammar rules
