Ds is P1 Northern Ireland. Didn't know any letters or sounds when he started due to speech and language difficulty.
Has now done a number of phonics and had a few picture only readers. Today he got his first reading with a word in it and he knows it say "look". However he hasn't done L or K as a phonic.
He is Dc 4 and I am bit lost as none of the rest did phonics and it's complicated by speech and language complications.
Should I teach him to sound out "look" or is that going backwards given as he already knows it?
