Special features of the Digraph Reading Books

This series of books focuses exclusively on sounding out words and only uses a minimal number of key sight (red/tricky) words. These short words should be learned on a flashcard first but are best put into context as soon as possible when children usually, quickly pick them up. The words being introduced in the reading programme for the first time are listed at the beginning of each book.

Pictures are deliberately minimal to encourage the child to gain meaning from the text and not to guess.

All of the words are introduced and then met again in subsequent readers giving repetition of vocabulary, to help develop confidence and fluency.

Highly structured

Very systematic

There is also a short introduction to the book to be read by the teacher and discussed with the child. These introductions help to make up for the lack of words in the book and help parents and teachers to have a basis for discussion with the child, so aiding reading comprehension.

I have based the stories around loveable characters with whom the children quickly identify: farmer Tom with his animals, his wife, his son Sam and daughter, Pam, his dog, Jiff and the cat.

Due to the highly systematic, phonetic nature of these books, they are very suitable for special needs children who have failed with other programmes.
Many parents have told me they wished they had found these books sooner or had found them at all, as they would have been ideal for their struggling reader.

They have been thoroughly tested by my current pupils all of whom are boys. Even my nine-year old boy pupil loves them.

They can also be used with young EFL/ESL learners.
