Hi, just wondering if you guys can help me. A couple of weeks ago I was having a look at some previous forum posts when I came across a link to a website that had short video clips of a teacher doing the jolly phonics actions, pronouncing the sound correctly etc etc. It was a schools website. Stupidly I didn't save the web address in 'my favourites'. I'm now in the process of putting together an information evening for parents on phonics, reading and writing and I really want to show parents that website.
