Read, Write, Play - by Sophie David (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Whether you're supporting school lessons or starting at home, this book provides all the guidance you need - with no prior knowledge of phonics required. It is the perfect resource for parents, carers and educators who want to transform phonics into a playful, accessible adventure.

Children learn best through play, and every activity in this book is designed to be fun and quick to set up, using just 10 common household items like paper cups and craft sticks. These multi-sensory and adaptable activities cater to all learning styles, making phonics enjoyable and rewarding for every child.

Covering all six phases of the phonics curriculum, it starts with pre-reading skills and progresses to advanced topics like irregular plurals and suffixes. Clear explanations and tailored activities ensure children can build their skills confidently at their own pace.

Phonics doesn't have to be daunting. With Read, Write, Play, it can be playful, memorable and even magical.
