Reading Planet | Rocket Phonics | Target Practice
Rocket Phonics Target Practice provides focused opportunities for children to revisit, reinforce and apply essential phonics knowledge through purposeful decodable reading. Designed to complement systematic synthetic phonics teaching, the range helps developing readers strengthen their decoding skills and build greater accuracy and confidence.
With an emphasis on targeted reinforcement, these resources provide additional opportunities to practise letter–sound relationships, blending and familiar spelling patterns. Whether used to consolidate classroom learning, provide extra support or reinforce specific phonics skills, Target Practice helps children make steady progress towards fluent, independent reading.
Strengthen essential phonics knowledge
Give children focused opportunities to revisit taught letter–sound correspondences and spelling patterns. Targeted practice helps consolidate existing knowledge, strengthen sound-to-letter connections and develop more secure decoding skills.
Provide practice where it matters most
Support learners who benefit from additional opportunities to apply their phonics knowledge. Purposeful decodable reading helps reinforce developing skills, address areas requiring further practice and build confidence through achievable reading experiences.
Develop fluency and reading independence
Encourage repeated, successful reading experiences that help children move from effortful decoding towards greater automaticity and fluency. As phonics knowledge becomes more secure, learners develop the confidence to read increasingly independently.

Reading Planet | Rocket Phonics | Reading Practice
Rocket Phonics Reading Practice is a fully-resourced Systematic Synthetic Phonics programme that will help children from Foundation to Year 2 develop phonics and literacy skills. Through carefully sequenced decodable books, students can apply their growing phonics knowledge to reading connected text, strengthening accuracy, fluency and confidence.
Designed to complement systematic synthetic phonics instruction, Rocket Phonics provides opportunities to practice taught letter–sound correspondences, blend sounds and recognise increasingly complex spelling patterns. Engaging stories and accessible reading experiences help children consolidate their learning while developing enjoyment and confidence in reading.
A structured pathway to reading
Carefully sequenced decodable texts support children as they progress through phonics learning. Each stage provides opportunities to revisit familiar letter–sound relationships while applying newly taught sounds and spelling patterns in meaningful reading.
Turn phonics knowledge into reading skills
Purposeful reading practice helps children apply their decoding skills to complete words, sentences and stories. Repeated opportunities to blend, decode and read connected text support increasing accuracy, automaticity and fluency.
Building independent, confident readers
Engaging decodable stories provide achievable reading experiences that encourage children to practise independently. As decoding becomes more secure, students can focus increasingly on understanding and enjoying what they read, building the foundations for lifelong literacy.

Building strong foundations in reading
Decodable readers play an important role in early literacy, giving children opportunities to apply the phonics knowledge they have been explicitly taught. Carefully sequenced texts help beginning readers develop the essential skills needed for reading success.
By introducing letter–sound relationships in a systematic progression, decodable books support students as they practise blending sounds, recognise spelling patterns and develop reading accuracy and fluency.
