- Give the sound when shown any Phase 2 grapheme, securing first the starter letters s, a, t, p, i, n
- Find from a display any Phase 2 grapheme when given the sound
- Orally blend and segment CVC words
- Blend and segment in order to read and spell (using magnetic letters) VC words such as if, am, on, up and ‘silly names’ such as ip, ug, and ock
