I have a preschooler due to start Reception this September. She knows all her numbers by recognition and some of her letters. I would like to help her get a bit more confident in writing numbers and letters. She loves sitting down and practising with a pen.
But - she is pronouncing her letters in the usual non-phonic way which is different to how she'll be taught at school. How can I get to grips with how to pronounce them to teach her? Are there some books/websites I can use? I have a Jolly Phonics work book but it doesn't really cover all the pronunciation.
And what would be the best way to help her with writing? Tracing or copying?
Thank you!
