    About this ebook

    First Class Phonics is a series of books designed to help children quickly become proficient readers and writers.
    These books use Synthetic Phonics, a high-quality teaching method recognised all over the world. In Synthetic Phonics, children focus on the skills that enable them to read and spell words accurately. They recognise the importance of every sound they hear in the spoken word and learn to blend these sounds so that they can read words from the very beginning of the program.
    It is essential that children develop the ability to hear, identify and manipulate individual sounds in order to read fluently. This book provides a range of fun activities to ensure this happens.
    Book 3 introduces digraphs (two-letter sounds) and trigraphs (three-letter sounds). It covers the sounds ch, sh, th, ng, nk, ee, e (as in be), ay, igh, oa, oo (as in moon), oo (as in cook), ar, or, ir and the ways ‘o’ can make a different sound at the end of tricky words.
    It teaches the tricky words are, was, to, do and your. The last chapter contains a story that uses only words built from the sounds taught in this book.

      Introduction

      First Class Phonics is a series of books designed to help children quickly become proficient readers and writers.

      These books use ‘Synthetic Phonics’, which is a high quality teaching method recognised all over the world. In synthetic phonics children focus on the skills that enable them to read and spell words accurately. They recognise the importance of every sound they hear in the spoken word and learn to blend these sounds so that they can read words from the very beginning of the program.

      It is essential that children develop the ability to hear, identify and manipulate individual sounds in order to read fluently. This book provides a range of fun activities to ensure this happens.

      Book 3 introduces digraphs (two-letter sounds) and trigraphs (three-letter sounds). It covers the sounds ch, sh, th, ng, nk, ee, e (as in be), ay, igh, oa, oo (as in moon), oo (as in cook), ar, or, ir and the ways ‘o’ can make a different sound at the end of tricky words. It teaches the tricky words are, was, to, do and your. Whenever children meet these words in the text they are written in italics so children know they cannot ‘sound them out’.

      The last chapter contains a story that uses only words built from the sounds taught in this book. In this chapter words are not written in italics.

      *Instructions to be read by adults are starred with an asterisk and written in italics.

      Notes for Parents and Teachers

      How do I use this book?

      When a new sound is introduced you will see the following format:

      ch

      ch chick

      Each time a new letter is taught ask your child to say what the picture represents, e.g. chick.

      With your finger, trace the letter shape in the air, over a plastic letter, on a blackboard, table or on the floor. Ask your
