Rumpelstiltskin Lvl 2

Note to Parents, Carers and Teachers

Read it yourself is a series of modern stories, favourite characters, traditional tales and first reference books, written in a simple way for children who are learning to read. The books can be read independently or as part of a guided reading session.

Each book is carefully structured to include many high-frequency words vital for first reading. The sentences on each page are supported closely by pictures to help with understanding, and to offer lively details to talk about.

The books are graded into four levels that progressively introduce wider vocabulary  and longer stories as a reader’s ability and confidence grows.

Ideas for use

·       Children learn best when reading is a fun experience. Read the book together and give your child plenty of praise and encouragement.

·       Help your child identify and sound out the phonemes (sounds) in any words she is having difficulty reading. Then, blend these sounds together to read the word.

·       Talk about the story words and tricky words at the end of each story to reinforce learning.
