A structured reading program for children aged 3-7 learning to read English.
Divided into five phases, it systematically introduces letters and sounds, starting with wordless Phase 1 books that build prereading skills.
Reading Stars Phonics Phase 4 Set contains a complete set of reading books to support Phase 4 of a phonics programme. In total there are 39 books.
It contains both fiction and non-fiction titles, on a range of topics and text types. These books correspond to Phase 4 of the Letters and Sounds programme, and match any phonics programme that follows the Letters and Sounds order to introduce new phonemes and graphemes. The words are all decodable which means they are made up of phonics that children can put together to decode the word
The 39 books cover:
- 16 ‘blend’ title that introduce just simple blends (CVCCs and CCVCs) as well as the new CEWs met in this phase.
- 23 ‘blend-plus’ titles that then introduce some more complex blends (polysyllabic CVCCs/CCVCs, CCVCCs etc).
Together this pack of books offers a structured way of developing children’s progression in reading.
These books are part of Ransom’s Reading Stars Phonics series:
- 225 fully decodable phonics readers that offer progression on a week-by-week basis.
- Fiction and non-fiction as well as a variety of text types all supported by beautiful illustrations and photographs.
- Diverse stories and characters that ensure that every child has the chance to ‘find’ themselves in the pages of the books.
- The variety of books needed (easier, harder, longer, shorter) to cater for all abilities and attitudes.
- Real and rewarding reading experiences – the limitations of decodable language do not get in the way of quality books that foster a love of reading.
