New Zed Reading Books

Reading books for High Frequency Words

A motivating set of reading books using the words from Phase Two and Phase Three of the first 100 High Frequency Words. These books are for word recognition YR to Y2.

In 2007 the Government published 'Sounds and Letters' which was developed to provide guidance in phonics teaching. The New Zed Reading Books have been developed to take into account the changes in the high frequency words. The first 45 words are replaced by 32 decodeable and tricky words in Phase 2 and 24 in Phase 3. The new books have been written around these new sets of words and have different stories from the originals.
