English - Making learning fun!

Phonics

Phonics - this can be done in such fun ways. Sharing videos from the web, dice games, interactive online games, post-it sorting and so much more. Maybe your child wasn’t ready to grasp certain phonemes when first taught in school.

Children dressed in costumes, decorated educational displays, and a handwritten story about Mrs. Harry and a baby parrot, with colorful visuals and drawings on the walls and table.

Reading & Writing

Dragons, fairies, aliens, unicorns and a wealth of characters which together we can bring alive through collaborative story writing. Writing in books and using whiteboards and games to bring lessons alive. Older children often love producing a powerpoint, developing their ICT at the same time, I love adding sound clips of pupils roaring or doing voices, dropping images into the background either off the net or the child’s own illustrations. I’m proud of each individual’s progress. Fronted adverbials, adjectives, direct or indirect speech, commas, full stops and so much more - each child is on their own journey.

Powerpoint presentation created by a pupil with image to enhance their interactive adventure story. A person in the image stand under a tree. There are two blue buttons at the bottom labeled 'Pull out a knife' and 'Run away'.

Reviews

My son has not been able to attend school due to bullying issues that resulted in PTSD. He is in year 6 and is now having sessions for maths and English with Claire.
OMG - after one session he was a different child. He ran down to us part way through to say it was so much fun and he was happy.
We are delighted... we were recommended Claire and understand why. She is great!! (EP)

… you have been very sensitive and supportive to help restore his confidence.
