The Blending Skills Masterclass

A free masterclass to show you how to build your child's blending skills and fluency at home.

On Tuesday 11th February at 8pm (GMT) I’m running a FREE masterclass on how to support your child with the biggest roadblock they’ll face in their reading. (Suitable for ages 3-7)

Blending is the most common reading roadblock that children face, and it can spring up at any time:

Some children may be beginning to blend, struggling to put 3 sounds together and make sense of them (like cat/bag/pop)

Some children might have mastered that, even found it easy, but stumble when it comes to two consonants next to each other (like clap/pray/tent).

Some children may have even managed that, only to fall down when it comes to multi syllable words, finding it difficult to remember all of the sounds in longer words (like caterpillar/concrete/kitchen).

If your child is struggling with any of these, or you want to make sure you’re prepared just in case, this masterclass is for you.

In the decade that I’ve been teaching, difficulty with blending has come up again and again. It’s a difficult roadblock to solve in school, but surprisingly easy to do at home (mostly because doing something for shorter amounts of time, but more often, is – and has repeatedly been proven to be – a better way to learn!).

In this masterclass, I’ll show you the activities and strategies I’ve used in my classroom, with my 1:1 students, and that I’ve given to many parents over the years. These strategies will have a huge impact on your child’s reading and the best part is your child won’t even know they’re learning.

What others have said about this masterclass!

We'll talk about:

How blending develops over time, step-by-step.
Activities you can do at home to build blending through play, no resources necessary.
Strategies to use when you're reading with your child, to encourage them to use their skills more confidently.
Common difficulties and mistakes and how to avoid them.
Ask your questions and get the answers instantly.

During this live session, you’ll also have the chance to ask any questions you might come up with, and get almost instantaneous answers. There’ll also be time afterwards to ask more general questions about your child’s reading and get support specific to you.
