Our Aim
Here at Berkhamsted Pre-Prep, we want pupils
to have an all-round, balanced education
Early Years’ Curriculum
The Teaching of Reading
Children aged 3 who later become
successful readers
• They have a favourite book which they enjoy
hearing repeatedly.
• They are able to recite nursery rhymes
• They can identify the beginning and ending
sounds (not letters) of words
• They can identify words which rhyme
• They have experience of book language
Approaches to Teaching Reading
Phonics
• letter sounds, letter blending
• c-a-t sh-i-p bl-a-ck
Look and Say
• Was the Elephant
Real Books
• Once upon a . . . .
The Process of Learning to Read
What do we do when we read?
The Process of Learning to Read
As I sauntered along the avenue I suddenly saw
a dog in the distance. As it came closer I saw
that it was a large dog with shaggy, brown hair
and a wagging tail. I was rooted to the spot
because I have been afraid of dogs all my life.
The Process of Learning to Read
In some experimental models, haem protein
cytotoxicity could be blocked by iron chelators and
glutathione, but this has not been evaluated
clinically. Dantrolene sodium blocks the release of
calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum and can
reduce calcium mediated myolysis. Occasionally,
fasciotomy may be required to prevent irreversible
peripheral nerve injury by muscle swelling in tight
fascial planes. Disseminated intravascular
coagulopathy is rare in uncomplicated
rhabdomyolysis but may occur in more complex
cases - for example , with associated sepsis.
The Process of Learning to Read
The Krinklejup
A krinklejup was parling a tristlebin when a
barjam stipped. The barjam then grupped the
krinklejup. The krinklejup zisked zoelly.

Comprehension:
• What was the krinklejup doing?
• What stipped?
• What did the barjam grup?
• Why did the barjam stip?
Ik heet Irene en ik lees graag.
Ik lees graag longe boeken.
Ik lees graag
grappige
boeken.
Ik lees graag boeken met plaatjes.
Ik lees graag kort
Ik lees graag verrie
Ik lees
gewoon
graag.
The Process of Learning to Read
Hearing Your Child Read
• Choose a quiet, relaxed place
• Warm up the text, particularly for young readers
• Always encourage the use of expression
• Vary the approach e.g. read a page each
• Don’t persist with books that are too difficult
The Process of Learning to Read
Remember…
• Children learn to read at different rates,
• Early reading is not a predictor of later academic
success.
• Children learn to read by reading!
The Process of Learning to Read
Learning English is tough . . .
Answer: “Fish”
Question: How do you pronounce “Ghoti”?
Explanation: “gh” as in “tough”
“o” as in “women” (plural)
“ti” as in “nation”
The Process of Learning to Read
. . . but your brain is amazing.
I cdnuolt blveiee that I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd what I

Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it

Debates about the National Curriculum
The National Curriculum
Mick Waters’ Conclusion Thinking Allowed
• Classrooms are becoming drier
• There is less experimentation
• Less mess
• Little time for the use of equipment
• We have this need to record work as evidence
Debates about the Curriculum
The National Curriculum
“We want high attainment and good
performance for young people, meeting the
standards expected nationally but also within
school at an individual level”.
Thinking Allowed on Schooling
Mick Waters, 2013
Debates about the National Curriculum
The National Curriculum
A good curriculum includes every learner
and provides opportunities for learner
choice and personalisation.
Debates about the National Curriculum
The KS1 Curriculum
The more learning becomes a treadmill through
the workbook or death by worksheets, the more
it loses vibrancy.

Debates about the National Curriculum
The KS1 Curriculum
If we want the curriculum to make sense and do
its job in a school, we might begin with 3 key
questions:
1. What are we trying to achieve?
2. How do we organise learning?
3. How well are we achieving our aims?

  • 21. The Process of Learning to Read What do we do when we read?
  • 22. The Process of Learning to Read As I sauntered along the avenue I suddenly saw a dog in the distance. As it came closer I saw that it was a large dog with shaggy, brown hair and a wagging tail. I was rooted to the spot because I have been afraid of dogs all my life.
  • 23. The Process of Learning to Read In some experimental models, haem protein cytotoxicity could be blocked by iron chelators and glutathione, but this has not been evaluated clinically. Dantrolene sodium blocks the release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum and can reduce calcium mediated myolysis. Occasionally, fasciotomy may be required to prevent irreversible peripheral nerve injury by muscle swelling in tight fascial planes. Disseminated intravascular coagulopathy is rare in uncomplicated rhabdomyolysis but may occur in more complex cases - for example , with associated sepsis.

  • 27. The Process of Learning to Read Hearing Your Child Read • Choose a quiet, relaxed place • Warm up the text, particularly for young readers • Always encourage the use of expression • Vary the approach e.g. read a page each • Don’t persist with books that are too difficult
  • 28. The Process of Learning to Read Remember… • Children learn to read at different rates, • Early reading is not a predictor of later academic success. • Children learn to read by reading!
  • 29. The Process of Learning to Read Learning English is tough . . . Answer: “Fish” Question: How do you pronounce “Ghoti”? Explanation: “gh” as in “tough” “o” as in “women” (plural) “ti” as in “nation”
