1 out of 5 stars Not a fan - but the order in which to learns letters is great   September 25, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I have 4 children who each studied at 4 different schools during their nursery years. Oxford Reading Tree (for 2 children) proved to work extremely well, Jolly Phonics (for 0ther 2) did not so well, so with the 2 it didnt work well with I reverted back to ORT at home.

Must say, Jolly phonics, however, do suggest an excellent order in which to study the letters... ORT goes straight to words. I do give JP a big tick for that! Once letters have been worked out, ORT is bet next step to read, rather than JP range

6 of 1, half a dozen of other!!!



3 out of 5 stars Good for those learning how to read   August 13, 2008
These books are good for working through the high frequency words and decodable words but are quite dull in terms of story line. I think Oxford songbirds are much better. They serve a purpose though and go well with the Jolly Phonics series, which most schools seem to be using at the moment in reception.


2 out of 5 stars We tried them but didn't like them   April 28, 2008
 15 out of 15 found this review helpful

I have used the jolly phonics workbooks, and my son knows well most of the phonics sounds presented in them. Since we liked the workbooks we decided to try the reading books.

He stared with the red level and although he can read them (at least the first three of each of the subjects) with some help, we have found many cons for a child just starting to read: (1) The size of the words is too small. He would be more comfortable with a bigger size. (2) Most of the stories are dry. (3) The complexity in the sounds used per book doesn't build up gradually. (4) The books don't focus in a few particular sounds at a time.

Given all this, I decided to try the Songbirds series from the Oxford Reading Tree by Julia Donaldson, and it is much better. He feels a lot more confident when reading and doesn't find it -and I quote-, `boring'. He even wants to read them again and again, which is great for practice. The illustrations are very lively and we can talk a lot about them as well.

Also the teaching notes included in the Songbird series give a few good ideas to keep practising the sounds.

To summarise, I'll only use the Jolly Phonics level 1 set for children who already reading but need more practice.



5 out of 5 stars Jolly Readers: Complete Set Level 1 (Jolly Readers) Red   December 12, 2007
 1 out of 6 found this review helpful

I think this set is well worth it. My 5 year old daughter has started learning the key words such as 'I, the, she, he...' and the first book to this collection deals with them by using the familiar Jolly Phonics character. She is new to this and I hope she does well.
