Read Write Inc. Phonics Parent Handbook helps parents support their child by using Ruth Miskin's successful tried-and-tested phonic methodology for reading success. It offers practical and effective advice in guiding their child through every story and helps build confidence using fun and engaging stories with opportunities for talk and praise throughout. The handbook also includes a letter from Ruth introducing RWI and information about her experience and role in advising the DfES on phonics and reading. It shows how the RWI method works and why it is so successful, how to use the Speed Sound Cards and how to use the Storybooks. It also includes general information about developing your child's reading ability.

About the Author:

Ruth Miskin is currently involved in a series of nationwide training programmes for primary schools.
Channel 4 are currently filming Ruth Miskin working in a failing school, using the RWI programme, to raise standards and turn struggling and non-readers into more confident and competent readers. Tim Archbold illustrates all the RWI books in schools so children and parents will be familiar with his
humorous, popular style.

Review:

`Read Write Inc. actually teaches children to read and write. We love using this programme because children achieve so much co quickly. They want to read and write. It's the best literacy programme we have ever known.
