  In December 2005, Education Secretary, Ruth Kelly called for a shake-up of the methods used in primary schools for teaching reading to ensure that the system of using synthetic phonics is introduced and promoted as early as possible. Teach Your Child to Read is a comprehensive reading primer based entirely on synthetic phonics. Separated into six easy-to-follow sections, it takes children step-by-step through the complexities of the English language so that they learn how to reason, analyse and work out its problems for themselves. Easy to use and packed with stories, nursery rhymes and enchanting illustrations, this book will help ensure children have an early, trouble-free and confident mastery of reading - their passport to a successful future.

  The phonetic method of teaching children to read was ousted in the 1960s in favour of the look and say method, but many parents and teachers feel that it should be reinstated. In the face of nationwide concern at the decline in literacy, this book enables parents and teachers to understand and teach the phonetic method to children aged four and over.
