Synopsis

The Phonics Handbook introduces teachers to all the Read Write Inc. resources for teaching reading, writing and spelling. It should be used in conjunction with the Speed Sounds Lesson Plans handbook, which provides detailed guidance on how to teach children to read and write sounds and words. Blueprint lesson plans are provided for teaching the Ditty activities, using the Storybooks for reading and comprehension, and consolidating children's knowledge by using the Get Writing! books. Suggested timetables and instructions on partner work are also included. This edition has been fully revised and updated and includes the following new features: step-by-step advice on implementing the programme throughout your school, improved assessment materials, guidance on developing language comprehension through talk, information about the 'simple view of reading' and how Read Write Inc. Phonics fits this model, detailed guidance on one-to-one tutoring, information about new elements to the programme, including new non-fiction titles for extra practice, and level matching to The National Curriculum for England, English Language 5-14, Curriculum for Excellence, The National Curriculum for Wales and The Northern Ireland Curriculum.

Review

"Read Write Inc. actually teaches children to read and write. We love using this programme because children achieve so much so quickly. They want to read and write. It's the best literacy programme we have ever known." --Lorna Jackson, Headteacher, Maryland Primary School

"There are many dimensions to your programme that support teaching and learning... The successful teaching that has been evident since September has had beneficial effects on learning and behaviour across the school." --Sue Watts, Furrow Community School
