Children who struggle with learning to read benefit most from the explicit and systematic teaching of phonics and the opportunity to practise this knowledge by reading books in which the content words can be decoded. Without this knowledge, children are just guessing.
The Cracking the ABC Code Decodable Learn to Read books have been developed by Dr Lillian Fawcett, a literacy expert who teaches students having difficulties learning to read. They have been carefully designed to include words that children have the phonic knowledge to decode plus the introduction of high frequency words (which children may or may not currently have the knowledge to decode) has been carefully controlled.
