Ben: Thanks for taking us out for a walk, Granny! It's great to be by the seaside again!

Granny: I've drawn us a map, specially for this walk.

Amber: Can I have a look?

Granny: I love drawing maps! Can you see what it shows?

Ben: Yeah! It's like a drawing of where we are. I can see that the green bit is land, the blue bit is the sea and that yellow bit in the middle must be the beach! But what do these little pictures mean?

Granny: They are called symbols. They show clearly the places you might like to visit.

Amber: But why don't you just use words?

Granny: If we used words, the map would look quite messy. Maps use symbols, because they don't take up as much space as words and are easier to follow! So instead of writing the word 'café', I've drawn a teacup symbol!

Amber: I get it. But what do the rest of the symbols mean?

Granny: Do you see that there is a little box in the bottom right corner of the map.

Amber: Yes!

Granny: That's called the key. It tells us what all of the symbols mean. Can you see what they mean?

Amber: That circle with a cross on the top... is a church!

Granny: Well done!

Ben: That letter 'P'... is for car park!

Granny: Spot on!

Amber: And that's the lighthouse, and that's theroad!

Ben: But how can we use the map to find our way?

Granny: Well, you've already found the lighthouse.

Ben: Yes.

Granny: And we're in the car park to the south west of it.

Ben: So we must be here!

Granny: We're going to follow this path that goes between the sandy beach and the golf course. Can you see it?

Ben: There it is and if we follow it, we should get to the café!

Granny: Let's go!

Ben: We must be going in the right direction because the beach is to the east and this golf course, is to the west!

Amber: And look! There's the café!

Granny: Great, let's keep going!

Ben: We made it!

Granny: Well done! I think we deserve a treat, don't you?

Ben and Amber: Yay!

Phase 6 has evolved over time. When Letters and Sounds was first introduced, Phase 6 (usually taught in Y2) wasn't outlined in great depth. Letters and Sounds simply identified a few general areas of spelling to be covered and gave advice on how to build on phonics learning to begin to teach these aspects of spelling. In 2009, the Support for Spelling document was introduced for years 2-6. It introduced specific half termly spelling units in Y2 which were much more closely aligned with the way that spelling is taught in KS2 (albeit still ensuring that there was a lot of emphasis on using phonics to inform spelling). The new curriculum (2014) includes a lot of very specific spelling learning that should be covered in Y2 (some new bits of learning have been moved into Y2 whilst other bits have been moved out into other year groups). Whilst the essence of Phase 6 (helping children to transition from phonics to spelling) hasn't really altered, the fine details of what should be included in Y2 have certainly changed.

New planning and resources for teaching spelling in Year 2 can be found at www.spellingplay.co.uk.

The existing PhonicsPlay resources for Phase 6 will remain available on this page for those who find them useful. However, please be aware that they were created some time ago and no longer match up neatly with the new curriculum.

In terms of reading at Phase 6, the main aim is to help children develop automaticity. Children need as many opportunities as possible to read a wide range of interesting, engaging texts at an appropriate level to help them build stamina, confidence and to develop a love of reading. Specific reading skills are generally developed in guided and shared reading sessions.

Good for: Practising plural rules
