Floppy's Phonics is an innovative teaching program that helps children learn to read and spell through phonics. The program is divided into stages, and each stage is aligned with engaging fiction and non-fiction books that help children consolidate their phonic knowledge. The books are fully decodable, meaning that children can read them on their own with the help of the phonics they have learned.

One of the key features of Floppy's Phonics is that the books are 100% matched to the phonic progression of the teaching program. This means that as children progress through the stages, they will encounter increasingly complex phonics patterns and sounds. The books provide a perfect fit with the phonics teaching, endorsed by phonics expert and trainer Debbie Hepplewhite.

The books are designed to consolidate taught GPCs (grapheme-phoneme correspondences) at each stage of the program. Each book covers two weeks of teaching, and can be used in class or as take-home readers. The books are also suitable for children who are learning to read independently, as they provide a range of challenging and engaging stories.

Levels 1+-2 consist of simple blending books and short texts that focus on building basic phonemic awareness and letter recognition. These books are perfect for children who are just starting out on their reading journey. Levels 3-5 include 3 fiction (with one Biff, Chip and Kipper adventure) and 3 non-fiction per level. The fiction books are designed to capture children's interest and imagination, while the non-fiction books provide a range of topics that are relevant to children's lives.

In addition to the engaging content, Floppy's Phonics books also include support for parents and carers. The inside cover notes provide helpful tips and advice for parents and carers, as well as a list of the GPCs that are covered in each book. This helps parents and carers to reinforce the learning that their children are doing in class and to support their children's reading development at home.

Overall, Floppy's Phonics is an excellent teaching program that helps children learn to read and spell through phonics. The fully decodable books, matched to the phonic progression of the program, provide a perfect fit with phonics teaching and help children consolidate their phonic knowledge. The engaging content and support for parents and carers make Floppy's Phonics an invaluable resource for children and their families.
