A unique, fully decodable Australian reading series
Develop phonic and comprehension skills right from the start
Oxford Reading for Comprehension Decodables for F-2 supports students in developing key phonic and comprehension skills with 60 fully decodable fiction and non-fiction titles.
This unique program combines a proven, finely sequenced phonics framework (aligned to Letters and Sounds) with a research-based Comprehension Skills Framework. The series also incorporates the Oxford Wordlist with guidance on its use aligned to the phonic progression of the series.
Fully Decodable Texts
The 60 fully decodable texts are aligned to Letters and Sounds and the finely sequenced phonic texts support students in practising and embedding phonic knowledge. Each text is meticulously levelled to Oxford Reading Level criteria.
Phonics and Comprehension Coaching
Each of the 60 fully decodable texts is accompanied by Phonics and Comprehension coaching notes. The notes provide support before, during, and after reading and focus on the newly introduced GPCs (grapheme phoneme correspondences) and high frequency words prior to reading.
Comprehension questions are provided (linked to the Comprehension Skills Framework) along with guidance for explicitly teaching and modelling comprehension strategies.
Teacher Handbook
The Oxford Reading for Comprehension Decodables Teacher Handbook provides complete support for using the series in the classroom. It provides an overview of the phonics framework, and suggested phonic warm up activities - including tips on practising sounds and support for segmenting and blending.
The text also delivers support for teaching, modelling and developing comprehension strategies and skills, along with an overview and explanation of the Comprehension Skills Framework.
