We are delighted to introduce you to our Jolly Phonics Readers Level 1 Our World, which are fully decodable books for new readers.
These readers have a very carefully controlled vocabulary and are specifically designed for children who are learning to read and write with Jolly Phonics.
• The text in these Red Level Books (first level) uses only decodable regular words (words that are made up from the 42 letter sounds taught in the first stage of Jolly Phonics) and a small number of ‘tricky’ words (frequently used words that are not fully decodable at this stage).
• All new tricky words and alternative vowel spellings used are shown on the front inside cover. These can be used as a quick practice activity before starting the book.
• Faint type is used for silent letters, like the ‹b› in lamb.
• Comprehension questions and discussion topics are included at the end of the book. These ensure that children are not only able to read the text, but also get meaning from it.
