InitiaLit Reader 9.3a Mick and Dan

It is a hot day. Mick and Dan have a plan to help them stay cool. This Level 9 reader in the InitiaLit Readers sequence focuses on consonant blends (CVCC and CCVC words). (Author: Colette Read, Illustrator: Janet Tiitinen) The InitiaLit Readers Levels 1-9 are carefully scaffolded for children in their first year of school to practise their developing reading skills, following the InitiaLit–Foundation phonic sequence, and should be purchased by schools using the InitiaLit–Foundation program. Full sets of Readers (Levels 1-9), bundle sets for each level (1-9) or individual titles can be also be purchased by parents wishing to support their child’s reading, or by any school wishing to provide decodable readers to support an evidence-based synthetic phonics approach to teaching reading. Each title includes instructions and pre- and post-reading activities to help teachers and parents use the books effectively.
