SPELD-SA Readers: Phonic Books with Sounds-Write Initial Code Units 1-10 x 10 Books

These new SPELD SA phonic book series follows the Sounds-Write phonics sequence.

In developing this series, SPELD SA consulted with people who live and work in the Anangu, Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) Lands. SPELD SA acknowledges that “the content, settings and characters may not reflect all Aboriginal people and their experiences but hope that Aboriginal students learning to read can find some familiarity in and connection with these books in their literacy journey."

The books feature loveable characters and engaging storylines that support the learning of letter-sounds and blending in a sequential phonic order, helping readers to develop their independent decoding skills.
