Fiction Group Reading Books Set 2 (CVC, CCVC & CVCC) – Foundation Semester 2
In stock (can be backordered)
Set of 60 (10 titles, 6 of each title) Decodable CVC, CCVC & CVCC Group Reading Books with increased length, some HFW’s and Stage 1 phonic concepts
Decodable readers present text that can be read using the decoding skills students have acquired. In the context of reading, students are then able to practice the phonic concepts that have been taught explicitly and systematically. For age-appropriate students, PLD’s Foundation Teaching Sequence recommends the introduction of decodable reading books within Term 2. Decodable readers typically should be viewed as a short-term resource, until students develop fluency and word attack skills.
The modern and engaging decodable reading books in this set have been hand-picked by Diana Rigg to align with the PLD’s evidence-based Structured Synthetic Phonics program. These group readers have been specifically selected and organised into sets for Semester 2, Foundation Year when students are first learning to read. However, the books can also be presented to older students who are slow to progress.
Allocating, Tracking & Sorting PLD Decodable Reading Books
Research repeatedly reports that the gains are greatest from the initial years of schooling when students are first learning to read. In terms of allocating reading books, completing the 3 minute Early Reading Profile screen, within PLD’s Foundation Screening and Tracking Manual is recommended.
The books are supplied with identification labels to assist with storage and organisation. The books, which are available only in sets and cannot be purchased as individual copies, are a cost-effective option for schools to modernise their early reading material and achieve a positive start to reading for the students in their care. This set of decodable reading books is mentioned in the Foundation Teaching Sequence Manual on page 9 & 10.
