Foundation Term Two | Science of Reading Literacy Centres | BHFLJVWXYZ

A complete term of Science of Reading–aligned literacy centres designed to save you planning time and reduce classroom noise. Tasks focus on decoding, encoding, and phonemic awareness. With predictable, low-cognitive-load routines, students stay engaged and independent — so you can run your focus groups without constant interruptions.

Each level follows a predictable format, allowing students to learn the routine quickly. This keeps cognitive load low, increases independence, and maintains engagement — without the novelty wearing off.

The result?

👉 Calm, focused literacy rotations

👉 Fewer questions and disruptions

👉 More time for you to run effective small-group instruction
