This is wonderfully detailed feedback of the use of Phonics International in a primary school in Western Australia.
I welcome any feedback - but standardised test results showing results 'before and after' the implementation of Phonics International really helps us to understand what can be achieved - beyond just a 'feel good' factor of enjoying using the resources.
Please do contribute to 'feedback' if you can find the time. It is important to encourage other teachers teaching reading and spelling in the English language to take note of the findings of research and leading-edge practice and to take note of the conclusions of national enquiries in the USA, the UK and in Australia.
The clock is ticking for our children. It is a tragedy for children to miss out on being taught the English alphabetic code explicitly and thoroughly because of the lack of will and understanding of those training teachers or in authority over the schools.
