In the pit: (Red Squirrel Phonics Level 1)

Description

A delightful story of a young squirrel named Sammy who overcomes his fear of the dark while exploring a mysterious pit with his friends. Red Squirrel Phonics is a new series of decodable readers from Raintree, packed with real stories using words that children can read. The programme teaches children phonics skills in a sequential and systematic way so that they can learn the sounds (phonemes) and the letters that represent them (graphemes) and then practise and apply this knowledge through reading appealing, decodable texts that make sense. This ensures that every beginner reader will experience success in their reading from their very first book! In this Level 1 book, Sid is having a quiet nap in the sandpit. Then Pam gets in and the boys. Sid is not happy and lets everyone know.
