Redback Phonics Readers: Science: Growing - Emu Life Cycle
Description
Australia is filled with wonderful and fascinating wildlife, and the emu is one of the most famous! How much do you really know about Australia's walking birds?
These non-fiction readers provide essential phonics reading practice for children who have already learned and practised over 40 alphabet sounds. They offer meaningful non-fiction content using language that incorporates elements familiar to children who have undergone phonics training, such as the UK Letters and Sounds program, Phases 1-6.
A key feature of the Redback Phonics Readers is that they naturally present grammatical elements, text layouts and other common print features that are often omitted in strictly levelled decodable readers. Additionally, the Redback Phonics Readers maintain a typical flow of language and presentation of information, without the strict limitations on words and sounds necessary for levelled decodable readers. This normalisation of language presentation is a crucial step in transitioning to early chapter books, which are the natural progression after using Redback Phonics Readers.
