What is taught in phase 4 phonics?

Children going into phase 4 will know most of the simple GPCs, and be able to blend phonemes to read CVC words and segment CVC words for spelling. They will have some experience in reading simple two-syllable words and captions. They will know letter names and be able to read and spell some tricky words. The purpose of this phase is to consolidate children’s knowledge of graphemes in reading and spelling words containing adjacent consonants and polysyllabic words.

What are the phase 4 tricky words?

The phase 4 tricky words for children to read are: said, like, there, when, so, do, there, when, some, little, out, come, one, what, have, were.

The phase 4 tricky words for children to write are: he, she, we, be, me, was, my, you, her, they, all, are.

What are tricky words? 

Tricky words are words that cannot be completely decoded, or can’t be decoded at all, at the stage of phonics learning the child is at. They need to be learned by sight, as they crop up regularly in reading texts and captions. It’s really important that children learn to read phase 4 phonics tricky words, and quite often, the best way to teach them is by using this phase 4 tricky words mirror activity , using a hand mirror, to encourage children to read the phase 4 tricky words. Use as part of your phonics provision area, or during phonics sessions.
