Children who are up to these Readers are often able to read simple fictional works, for instance Choose Your Own Adventure stories and the like. This is a great thrill for them.
At advanced levels, Readers occasionally teach up to three new sounds. This speeds up learning without overburdening the now competent reader.
Due to the systematic structure of the program, even more complex sentences are soon no problem.
Notice how the special (i.e. sight) words work together with the spelling patterns learned. Together they help form a base from which children can 'decode' huge numbers of words - even ones they have never seen before.
本教材由Fitzroy Community School創辦人Faye Berryman及Philip O'Carroll在過去二十年期間研究發展。他們精細地創作70個故事讀本,書中只使用孩童能自己閱讀的生字。
每一讀本介紹一個新的音標如oy,和一些特殊的生字如said。
每一套各十本讀本,可搭配一本50至80頁練習拼字、基礎文法、和閱讀理解的習作(Word Skill workbook)。
Fitzroy教材同時包含習作解答(Answer book)及讀本1到50的CD。
