Written especially for older and struggling readers - The Beanies. The Beanies are Hi-Lo - age-appropriate, high-interest stories with an exciting array of adventures, centered around a cast of diverse, relatable, and teenage characters that reflect the modern world that we live in.
Phase 5 (Vowel Sounds) set has been written specifically for the progression of Letters & Sounds. Phase 5 (Vowel Sounds) introduces a further 20 letter patterns, mainly focusing on alternative vowel sounds. Phase 5 readers will follow students week-by-week through the program providing them with text-based context to practice their emerging reading skills. Every story has been written with a strictly controlled text so that students are only exposed to those letter sounds that they have previously learned. Furthermore, tricky words are only included after they have been introduced. Build confidence in older, struggling readers as they master the phonics code. Can also be used alongside other popular schemes as book-banded reading levels are provided.
The set includes 6 x 12 fiction readers, each with colorful illustrations.
