is a start-to-finish Program of 60 Storybooks which teaches children how
to read using Phonics - its the only system proven by research to cater
for all children - and meets the new requirements for the Federal "No
Child Left Behind" program. FANTASTIC PHONICS is a great resource - the 60 Storybooks simply print onto standard paper, making it a low cost and convenient way to get your children independently reading. |

HOW THE PROGRAM WORKS FANTASTIC PHONICS is structured in three Series, covering the full complexity of reading skills.
 What's Next?
|
Series
One
(20 storybooks) covers the basic Phonic sounds. Each
story illustrates how letter combinations make predictable sounds,
and they teach children how to "decode" common words
using Phonics ... the "common gateway" to reading
success. 
Series
Two
(20 storybooks) extends the child's reading knowledge, with more
complex Phonic decoding, double syllable words, punctuation and
the introduction of spelling variations (eg, pie, high, sky).
While the child reads through Series Two, Series One is
used for revision, to build speed, and to build "instant
recall" of the 48 phonic sounds which create the English
language.
Series
Three
(20 storybooks) extends your child into increasingly challenging
words and sentence structure. Multi-syllable words are introduced,
and sight words are increasingly introduced. Variation and rules
are covered, such as "i before e except after c", and
children are taught how different spellings can create the same
sound ( blew, blue, too, shoe, you) - and the same spelling can
create different sounds ("ou" in you, tough, though).
