Jolly Phonics Little Word Books - English Precursive

The Jolly Phonics Little Word Books are a thoughtfully curated set of 14 fully decodable readers, designed to support children as they embark on their journey toward fluent reading. These books follow the Jolly Phonics systematic synthetic phonics approach, introducing letter sounds in a carefully sequenced manner to ensure success from the very first page. The vocabulary in each book is strictly controlled, using only decodable regular words that match the letter sounds introduced up to that point in the phonics programme. The first two books include words made from the first group of letter sounds, and as the set progresses, each subsequent book builds on previous knowledge by adding more letter sound groups. This cumulative approach gives children the confidence to read independently while reinforcing phonemic awareness and sound blending skills. The inclusion of helpful tips for teachers and parents within each book makes these readers ideal for both classroom and home use. With clear, simple text and supportive illustrations, this series helps build essential early reading skills in an engaging and accessible format. These books are a valuable addition to any early years literacy resource collection and can be used in guided reading, small group instruction, or independent practice.
