At last, just what you have been looking for! A professionally written set of totally FREE, levelled phonic reading books, for parents to use to help their child to learn to read! Written by phonic specialists, these books take children from the earliest stages of decoding to reading fluency. Simple to useThese books have been written for Reading Made Simple, where FREE, easy to follow instructions are provided to help you to teach your child to read - simply!
Built in successUnlike many phonic reading books, these books build in success as they only use decodable words for which the child has already been taught the phonic sound and a few sight words which are gradually introduced. These sounds and sight words are then revised again and again as reading book follows reading book. Constant revision and repetition of words helps children to relax knowing their are no nasty surprises. Cheap to printThese books print n black and white just as well as colour making them budget friendly compared with $5 a book new, or $1 in a thrift/charity shop. SAVE, SAVE, SAVE and still give your child the best reading instruction. What these phonic decodable books DO NOT contain
We have endeavoured to create little stories, with a touch of humour where we can, which will set children up for serious, thinking reading later on. We do not believe that the gift of reading is purely to entertain, but as a means of learning about the world around us. Therefore, they are not 'silly', or fantastical, as we want children to live in the real world as thinking people, not a virtual one where their minds can be easily controlled. The Reading BooksThese book bundles are all available for FREE from my store on Teach Simple, where I get a small royalty every time someone downloads them, so enabling me to provide more FREE resources for all to use. If you see other paid products in my Teach Simple store that you would like, please pop over to my TPT store where you can purchase them without subscription. Initial Sounds 'reading books'These are the first books in our series of decodable reading books. They are intended to be used while a child is learning the initial sounds.The process of learning to read begins with learning the sound that each letter of the alphabet stands for when it is at the beginning of a word. We call these beginning or initial sounds. We help children to lean these through s simple daily programme. You can find out about it here. CVC decodable reading booksThe next set in the series is a set of 16 CVC levelled phonic reading books, taking children from their earlies attempts to blend the simplest words such as c-a-t, to reading simple sentences made up of such words, and the sight words: a, is, the of. The characters are introduced throughout the series - farmer Tom, his animals, the dog and cat, and son and daughter, Sam and Pam. Children love these books because they can read them. Starting with the first book where the child simply reads 'a cat', to the last book where they read of Jiff making a mess, children feel their skills developing. The set is accompanied by a set of five workbooks which help to consolidate learning. Instructions for teaching this stage can be found here. Consonant Blends reading booksOnce the child can blend three sounds, we teach them to blend four. Instructions for doing this can be found here. Once again, these books have matching workbooks to help learners to progress as quickly as possible. Common Sounds Level 1 Set 1The next stage is to learn some new sounds, made when two or three letters join together. In the red level series we teach the sounds: ck; oo; ee; sh; ch; th; ng; ing; ar; and or. The children feel secure as the stories carry on telling more of the adventures of the characters they have come to love added to which they meet familiar words, already met in the the pervious two levels. This means that reading fluency can start to develop. If you need help teaching these sounds, we tell you a simple method for doing so here. There are more books in the series, although not yet packaged into bundles and you can find them here. Silent 'E' Words level 1 Set 2Next in the Reading Made Simple reading scheme, we learn the silent 'e' rule and learn to decode words like: cake, time, smoke and tube. If you have a struggling reader we have you covered too. Find out more here.
