High Frequency Words

[Kardashianw]

hi anybody know of any good websites for high frequency words for Reception and Year 2?

Thanks :)

Oh so why didnt you just say that. I have got the jolly phonics books ort. I was just wondering why do private schools still teach by words 1st using the ginn 360 books and then they do phonics the children still begin to read??

Are you speaking for all private schools?

I thought the phonics 'expert' was mashabell. Or am I doubly confused about the biscuits and wine

No just one in particular.

masha and phonics expert in the same sentence ! I must stop drinking virtual wine

my children's state school starts them off with ginn 360. They give out little cards with all the level one words in too...

Fortunately, I use reading chest so that they have access to phonics-based reading material in the early days. The kids' teacher has commented that she can't understand how both of my children became readers so quickly.

hocuspontas I have dribbled tea out of my nose onto my keyboard at your last comment

Mrz is the acknowledged mn expert on reading and writing. High frequency words are old school. I used them with dd1 as I wanted to see his much she knew.

No I'm not an expert

Masha - phonics expert!

I dutifully make dcs practice their HFW which are sent home every week? Am I wasting my their time? Its more spelling than reading.

I was being ironic about the expert! I thought people were confusing maisieD with mashabell. Now I'm worried that my irony isn't up to the mark...

You do realise she will now include it in her CV hocuspontas!

Christ, the only times I visit these boards and it's worse than AIBU.

if you visited more often you would understand the in joke

Ha! Perhaps I should ask for that post to be deleted! I don't want to be responsible for chaos and illiteracy in KS1...

don't under estimate your influence!
you could be responsible for the whole of the English speaking world!

No, u don't, do u?

Oh dear think I've caused a storm with HFW MrZ y wasn't u on at the i wrote it an nipped it in the bud with me.

Ok I get it jolly phonic books.....it is.

Should I use the HFW for spellings then??

I shall visit more often, judging by ds1 I should have visited more often before!

Oh dear

I've been out for a meal and missed all the fun...sadly no wine as I was driving and it was foggy...

I love masha the phonics expert....

Glad you're sorted now, Kardasianw
