Little Hands Castle, Phonics Book 1

This book has been specially designed and published for the purpose of teaching young children to read and write in an easy way. It helps children hear, identify and use different sounds that distinguish one word from another in English language.

The English written language is basically a kind of code. Teaching phonics help the children to crack that code. Research shows that when phonics is taught in a structured way, starting with the easiest sounds and progressing through the most complex, it is the most effective way of teaching young children to spell and read.  Children who receive good phonic knowledge are able to read any kind of word fluently and confidently and they also enjoy reading.

This book introduces 26 letter sounds, initial consonant blends, ending consonant blends, digraphs, magic e, long and short vowels, tricky words and sentences. This is the first of the two books on phonics. The next book covers alternative spellings, trigraphs and Quadra graphs and many more.

This book is also designed in a way that readers are introduced with lots of new words to blend and read easily. It also gives them ample opportunities to practice sentence reading to become a fluent and confident reader.
