My Project

Decodable books synchronise with phonics. As a child learns phonics at a certain level, they’ll read the decodable book at the same level to help them with success in reading fluency. This slant on reading, ensures kids develop dependable strategies. They’ll become confident in reading independently from an early age. My students love to read and these books will ensure that they will read fluently and with more joy!

Learning to decode words through phonics is essential for increasing a child’s vocabulary and language skills, with the extra benefit of expanding a child’s world knowledge.

Decodable books offer fluency, for a harmonious reading experience. These books will allow my scholars to grow their literacy from where they are at in the classroom and within our small group.
