CHARITY SALE - Confidence Builder 4 covers all the single letter sounds plus
‘ee’, ‘ar’, ‘sh’, ‘ck’, ‘th’, ‘er’, ‘ch’, ‘qu’, ‘ay’, ‘or’
‘you’, ‘why’, ‘fly’, ‘said’,
‘cry’, ‘by’, ‘give’, ‘who’, ‘have’, ‘go’

These phonics-based decodable readers are great for reading practice. The stories are especially suited to children needing catch-up. We do not provide pictures to ‘tell the story’ - the words do that - but these have fantastic illustrations by Ed McLachlan (The Oldie, Private Eye, New Yorker) who lent his skills to complement the writing of Hilary and Tom Burkard. Only five of the original ten books still exist, and they are out of print - a real ‘barn find’ after Tom Burkard died in 2019 - but I am putting them on TES because this content should be shared. Any proceeds will go to East Lancashire Children’s Hospice.

Learning to ‘sound out’ words is only the first step in becoming a fluent reader. Children need to practise until they can recognise words and spelling patterns automatically. If you rush ahead too fast, reading can become stressful and your child may become discouraged. It’s no fun reading if you have to sound out every other word, so these decodable readers provide invaluable practice to improve fluency.

The books were originally written to complement Sound Foundations Dancing Bears A and Bear Necessities, but they work well with any phonics based reading programme. I am editing the books and hope to get them back in print, but for a limited time I am making them available on TES for charity.
