Jolly Phonics: in nursery class and reception

[Novembergirl]

If your school uses Jolly Phonics and has a nursery class, I would be interested to know what aspects of the system children are taught in nursery and in reception. For example, do many nurseries teach Group 2 sounds and blending?

It would also be helpful to understand what expectations there are when nursery children enter reception.

I don'tknow about many nurseris but the 2 I have been involved with only did the basic phonics and not the blending.

Nursery children entering reception varies considerably depending on if/where they did their pre school. I think, at our school, they expect the children to be able to sit quietly, go to the toilet and out their choes on - and maybe count to ten and recognise their name

Ours just did the basic sounds in the last term of nursery.
When dd went into reception they started the sounds again and are now working on blends.
At our school they expect the children to recognise their names,be aware of numbers to 10, sit quietly, toilet themselves and be able to get changed for PE or ready for outdoor play on their own. They also prefer them to be able to eat their lunch with minimal supervision. There are lunch supervisors, but there are a lot of kids.
