KING STREET: Readers and Exercises - Set One
King Street is an integrated, structured phonics reading programme for adult and teenage learners which can be used by trained teachers as well as volunteer and support staff. This carefully graded reading scheme provides opportunities for practice in all the underpinning skills necessary to produce a competent reader.
Set One comprises 10 reading books plus accompanying exercises.
- Sam and Jim
- Jill and Dave
- Jane and Mark
- Steve, Ros and Sally
- The Simpsons
- The Corner Shop
- The King's Arms
- The Javindras
- Gwen and Harry
- The Empty House
Each book features one house on King St. and its inhabitants. The books are illustrated. They are very short and designed to be read in one session. Set One books have a word count below 100. The accompanying exercises may be completed over several weeks.
Great care has been taken to ensure that they are largely phonetically regular. High frequency and irregular words are introduced gradually. Care has been taken to link, wherever possible, the vocabulary and sounds introduced to the recommended structure of the literacy strategy. Because of the adult nature of the books, there is inevitably some vocabulary linked to adults learners' life experiences.
