What is phonics?
Phonics is a way of teaching children to read through understanding the sounds that individual letters make and blending them to make a word. Children can learn to read using this skill to decode new words. Phonic Books specialises in decodable, systematic books supporting this structured literacy instruction.
Accompanying photocopiable activities for reading, spelling and comprehension can be found in Phonic Books Pet Sitters Activities.
