Initial Sounds Reading Books

You can use these phonic initial sounds reading books in two ways:

1. You can look at each letter as it is introduced and use the page as part of the lesson for that sound.

2. You can wait until all of the sounds in each book have been taught and use it for revision. 

I prefer this last way, as when the child has learnt 5 sounds, s/he will be so glad to recognise the sounds that have been taught in the book and it will give him/her a real confidence boost and a feeling of success. Try it and see for yourself.

s you present each book, make it a moment to mark progress.

"Now you have learnt some more letters, you can read this book!"

Print in colour if you can. If colour is too expensive then print in black and white.

Use in conjunction with our initial Sounds workbook.
