Please see below two sample book covers from the collection.

You will notice that the approach to CVC words has been changed to avoid the problem many children have when there are gaps of silence between each sound, so dog, for instance, is pronounced as duh, o, guh.

As you can see on the covers below, by teaching the sound the vowel first – the o – it is easier to blend the d o into do (short o), and then add the final sound g onto the do to make dog.

This method creates immediate blending without the confusion of silences between each letter, and the problem of adding a grunt after the consonants.

Each title will be available as a bundle in A4 pages for teachers to print, bind, make a big book, laminate or display as suits the teacher’s needs for their class.

It is estimated that the books will be complete by May, 2024.
