Description

Tailored for older readers who need extra support, Set 2 extends the journey with The Beanies—a much-loved series of Hi-Lo decodable books. This set features the same cast of diverse, relatable teenage characters and takes the next steps in phonetic mastery, focusing on the first 21 letter sounds. It uses a strictly controlled text to align perfectly with the progression of Letters & Sounds.

In Phase 2 (Letter Sounds), this collection has been crafted to introduce the first 21 letter sounds in a structured manner. Following the week-by-week progression of the Letters & Sounds program, these readers offer students a contextualized platform to apply their budding reading skills. Each story is carefully written to ensure that students encounter only the letter sounds they have previously learned, while tricky words are introduced judiciously. This approach boosts confidence in struggling readers, facilitating mastery over the phonics code. Set 2 is compatible with other reading schemes as it provides book-banded reading levels. This set includes 12 books at the Phase 2 level.
