THRASS ONE-DAY FOUNDATION,
HAMPSHIRE, JULY 18, 2006

Very interesting. A good way of helping children to understand the English language.

Very useful way of laying out all the phonemes in an accessible format. I’m looking forward to reading the essential guide in detail. I will be teaching KS2 and I will be able to make good use of this.

Useful as an introduction to the programme. I can see how it would be very useful for young children or those with SEN. It was helpful to be able to use and take away some of the resources.

Purchased the picturecharts two years ago without training. Training has clarified some points. I now feel more able to use additional materials as well. Loved the Phoneme Machine computer programme!

Very interesting and useful way of implementing phonics. Course well delivered.

Very informative. Lots of useful ideas and resources which will be good to use in the classroom. Good course considering the intense heat of the day!

Very interesting approach. Lots of good ideas and I like the charts for each child – hopefully our children will catch on! You have worked very hard with very hot teachers!

Good explanation of the system and some ways of applying it but I am still unsure how it fits into the whole literacy picture. Probably using it will make things clearer. I like the link between grapheme and phoneme.

Very good. Lots of very useful information. I can use in my class tomorrow! Very sensible way of teaching a very complicated issue! Could probably have done with more than one day. Incredibly useful and helpful. Thanks.

Found the structure extremely helpful in giving a comprehensive explanation of graphemes, phonemes, graphs, digraphs etc. Very enthusiastic about getting started in September.

An excellent day – clearly explained. Good visual aids – interactive – not patronising. Thankyou.

Quite exciting. I hope our children will catch on quickly! The course was fast moving and light-hearted.
