By the end of Year 2, students should have progressed enough to accurately and fluently read and spell Stage 2 words and a percentage of Stage 3 words along with having a fairly consistent transfer phonic concepts into extended writing.

Implementing PLD in Year 1 & 2
Literacy development is the process of learning to read as well as writing, communicating and socialising. It is within Year 1 & 2, where students focus on learning the power of reading to gather information and writing as a way to share ideas with others. Initially written work is phonetic, however, over time phonic and high-frequency words should transfer across to written work.
