In more detail...
Play the games at each of the 5 stages in each box. The synthetic phonics structure has been put into 15 stages. Each stage builds on the one before, making it easy to follow.
- 'Get it', 'Match it' and 'Take it' card games enable students and children to practise, reinforce and consolidate reading.
- 'Use it' card game develops sentence construction and increases vocabulary knowledge.
- Explanation Card explains what each Stage is and how to teach that stage.
- Story Booklet with ten stories to encourage whole-text reading.
- Monitoring Booklet to track and assess individual student progress.
Progress with reading is inevitable; the learner picks up the phonic patterns easily and then reinforces them every time they play the games, over and over again.
