If your child is being taught to read using Read Write Inc. Phonics at school, you’ll find these kits and flashcards invaluable in supporting their reading development at home.
Our reading and writing kits have been developed especially for parents who have not had formal training in using the Read Write Inc. programme. You can use them to systematically teach all of the common sounds in the English language, helping your child to recognise the sounds and then to ‘sound-blend’ them into words for reading. Children become fluent readers, confident speakers and willing writers.
Read Write Inc. Phonics is a literacy programme developed by Ruth Miskin and published by Oxford University Press. It is taught in over 5000 schools in the United Kingdom, making it the country’s most popular way for children to learn to read using phonics.
You’ll find more information about Read Write Inc. Phonics on our Read Write Inc. guide for parents page.
In the Read Write Inc. Phonics programme, children learn sounds and the letters that represent them, and how to form the letters. Then, they read books written using only the letters they have learnt (and a small number of separately taught ‘tricky words’). This gives children plenty of early success and builds up their reading confidence.
