Everyone welcome! # Reception- Blending and Segmenting ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/E9B08B08-6660-4731-A5E2-63D7B726D0DC.jpeg) 10 September 2025 ![](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/E9B08B08-6660-4731-A5E2-63D7B726D0DC.jpeg) Our reception children listened and participated brilliantly in our phonics lesson this morning. The children made a circle, inside the circle sat different items of clothing. Mrs Wilkinson used her robot segmenting voice and the children then blended the word together to choose the correct item of clothing. Well done reception class!
