*Phonics Series – Phase 2, 3 and 5
What?
Our books can be split into each phonics phase: Phase 2, 3 and 5. Each book corresponds with each sound that is taught within that phase.
They are 10 pages long and the books in phase 3 and 5 are designed to be completely decodable for the children to read themselves. They are illustrated with fun characters by Sean Webster from Liverpool.
By following the scheme and order of the sounds, you can homeschool your child(ren) knowing confidently that your child is having the same experience as others. If your child is attending school then you know your child is having the opportunity to consolidate what they are learning at school.
Each book has accompanying resources from Teacher’s Pet which extends the learning even further.
How?
You can share the books alongside your child in the order of the sounds. When children can read the books with ease then you can move straight on.
If your child is ahead of where they should be then you can move them on at their own pace at home.
Similarly, if your child is struggling then you can look at the previous phase and support them to gain their confidence and love for reading.
Why / Impact?
We wrote these books as we wanted to offer an alternative range for children to enjoy. They impact straightaway as they are written using the sounds a child will have learnt prior to the book that they are on. The books have fun and vivid illustrations that bring to life our short stories.
The clear structure of the sounds allows you to go at a pace that suits your child’s individual needs rather than go at the pace of the class.
Mental Health & Wellbeing Series
What?
Our mental health and wellbeing short stories cover a variety of life events, such as, bereavement, loss and anxiety. They are designed to unlock conversations with your child.
All of our short stories are 10 pages long and are illustrated with vivid artwork to engage primary school aged children.
We pride ourselves on our series representing a diverse range of characters and families so that children can identify with them easily.
How?
They are a must for every primary school aged child’s bookshelf. Children can enjoy them at their own pace and it will provide strategies to support them with areas such as anxiety without being direct.
By discussing the short stories with children, they can act as a tool to open up communication and conversation with the children.
Why / Impact?
The journey started when Tracey’s Dad passed away from cancer and needed a way of helping her nephew to process the information. She wrote a book which supported him with this and opened up the conversation in a subtle way.
This led to a book publishing contract and the start of the journey in cutting through stereotypes. The impact of our series of books ensures that no topic is off limits.
