RWI Book Skills Progression

 

Read Write Inc. Phonics: Book Bag Books Super Easy Buy Pack

Our children experience success from the very beginning. As soon as a child can blend the first sounds taught together, our lively phonic books (pictured) are introduced, that are closely matched to their increasing knowledge of phonics and ‘tricky’ words.

Your child will practice reading these books at school before bringing them home. Your child bringing this book home is a real opportunity for them to show off how speedy and fluent they are becoming at reading.

Our Read Write Inc Phonic Scheme follows a carefully structured, colour-coded book progression designed to build your child’s reading confidence and fluency step by step.
 
Children are regularly assessed and placed in a group tailored perfectly to their current phonics knowledge, ensuring they only encounter books matching the sounds they have already mastered.
 
The journey begins with Sound Blending, before moving through the Red Ditty stage where children practice reading short, simple sentences.
 
From there, pupils advance through the primary colour bands: Green and Purple (introducing Set 2 vowel sounds), followed by Pink, Orange, and Yellow (which introduce complex Set 3 sounds and build up reading stamina).
 
Finally, children reach the Blue and Grey levels, where they read longer, more challenging texts to achieve full reading fluency and comprehension.
