Once pupils can confidently read simple words and phrases, they are ready to move on to decodable stories. The Level 1 ‘Reach for the Stars’ Decodable Readers includes 10 carefully structured readers that fully align with the Jolly Phonics programme.
Each story is fully decodable, allowing children to apply their phonics knowledge successfully and read with confidence from the very first page. The books are designed to reinforce and consolidate essential early reading skills, including blending sounds to read words, segmenting words for spelling, and developing early reading comprehension.
Through engaging, age-appropriate stories and controlled vocabulary, children are given multiple opportunities to practise the sounds and tricky words they have already been taught. This structured approach helps build reading fluency, accuracy, and confidence, while ensuring that children are not guessing or relying on pictures alone.
