Book 07 – Short & Long Vowel a with Blends and Digraphs (Blend Builders Level)

$11.99

Description

Workbook 7 is the first workbook in the Blend Builders Level. (Level 2 of The Reading Switch Program).

This book builds on the short and long vowel ‘A’ sounds covered in the Foundation Level, while introducing blends, digraphs, and the visual code for the letter ‘C’ when it makes the ‘S’ sound (e.g., cent, face).

Children start with a base of familiar vowel sounds and learn to read and decode more complex words by adding:

  • Blends (e.g., br, st, cl)
  • Digraphs (e.g., ch, sh, th)
  • When the letter ‘c’ sounds like the letter ‘s’

The dual-code reading method continues to support learning by using visual codes to highlight key spelling patterns, making reading more predictable and less confusing.

  • Dual Code Reading techniques in word decoding and reading exercises.
  • Step-by-step lessons build confidence in reading longer words.
  • Multisensory activities reinforce learning in an engaging way.
  • Short, easy-to-decode words progress to more complex words in this level.
  • QR-coded video lessons guide children through each concept.
  • Parent guidance videos provide extra support for home learning.

This workbook is perfect for parents, educators, and tutors working with primary school children who need extra support in reading. The printable format keeps costs low while allowing children to practice as much as they need. As the program progresses, children gradually build their confidence and skills, preparing them for fluent, independent reading
