What is phonics?

Phonics is a way of teaching children to read by understanding the sounds that individual letters make and blending them to make a word. Children can learn to read using this skill to decode new words. Phonic Books specializes in decodable, systematic books supporting this structured literacy instruction.

Phonic Books Dandelion World Stages 8-15 Reading and Writing Activities is a reproducible resource that accompanies Dandelion World Stages 8-15 nonfiction readers. It provides children with an engaging way to learn the five elements of reading: phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension.

The photocopiable activities in this book help children develop the skills underlying fluency in reading and spelling. Activities focus on blending, segmenting skills, supporting word-building, comprehension, and early writing in a fun and accessible way for young children. New sounds are introduced at each of the stages whilst also reinforcing those learned previously. This systematic process helps the reader enjoy success at each stage and motivates them. The Dandelion World, Stages 8-15 Activities book and series of books can be used independently or with the other books in the Dandelion World series.
