One, Two, Three and Away!
Pre-Readers
Speech Sound Pics (SSP) Approach teachers start these at the end of the SSP Purple Code Level
(See lesson 56 in the ICRWY app - ICRWY Phase 2) At this point learners have a solid foundation of phonemic awareness and phonics skills to be able to start the books, and also see the words segmented while listening to Miss Emma 'follow the sounds to say the words')
They continue using Code Level (phonics) readers alongside these One, Two, Three and Away! books.
The Village With Three Corners books are used as Transition Readers - bridging the gap between Decodable (Phonics) Readers and authentic (real) texts.
The One, Two, Three and Away! Pre-Readers are Code Mapped AND Monster Mapped.
The Speech Sound Pictographs show learners how each Sound Pic (grapheme) is pronounced, as many words have graphemes not covered in the 4 Code Levels. They are able to learn far more high frequency ('exception') words in meaningful context.
