Remove the confusion around phonological awareness and equip children with all the skills needed to conquer the world of words—spelling, reading and writing—with R.I.C.’s must-have new Phonological awareness skills. This series of five comprehensive books covers all the basics for early childhood children (from four years of age) but also assists older students who are struggling with phonics and spelling. It incorporates skills that fit into any phonics or spelling program. The series emphasises oral language. Twelve skills are presented in developmental order over the five books and include the following skills:
Book 1: Auditory discrimination, rhyming and alliteration The last 7 skills relate to phoneme manipulation. The skills are presented as fun, hands-on games and activities for whole class, small group and pairs, with full instructions (including the actual words to say if required), all game/activity resources, supporting worksheets if applicable, differentiation suggestions, formative and summative assessments and answers. Literature links and suggested websites for games are also included where applicable. The activities are predominantly oral activities for four-year-olds but are also appropriate for learners who struggle with letter-symbol correspondence, those beginning to read and older children who need support. The games and activities are perfect for learning stations and easily managed by adult and parent helpers. They can also be used for early finishers to consolidate skills or to motivate young learners needing extension. The activities link perfectly to the Early Years Learning Framework and the Phonics and word knowledge section of the Language areas of South African Curriculum English.
Kwax is in a discussion with Mannie Marsh Frog who is telling him about his ancestral history. He tells Kwax that the ancient amphibian ancestors were big and clumsy and really struggled to move about and live on land. An interesting point regarding amphibians is that they have not yet developed eggs with shells. They therefore return to water to lay their eggs. When the eggs hatch, little tadpoles pop out! The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Which was the most successful group in the entire animal kingdom? Facto finds out what contributed to the arthropods’ success and why they deserve the title of the first real land animals. The Flixies play a guessing game and they chat about crustaceans, multipedes, spiders and scorpions and the first animals that could fly – the insects! The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Grandpa Flex and Dux discuss the various kinds of reptiles. Flex explains how primitive vertebrates eventually managed to cope with life on land. Certain descendants of the amphibians had the features necessary to make exactly this possible! The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Vertebrates and invertebrates! Hollow animals! Hollow animals, spiny skins, molluscs and worms! Facto finds out that there are mainly two large groups of animals – those which have backbones and skeletons of bone and cartilage and those without. Of the latter group, the simplest ones live in water and we discover the advantages of living in water… The Teacher’s Guide includes:
In this story the Flixies Learn about the winning recipe of the vertebrates – a skeleton of bones and cartilage inside the body, to which muscles could be attached. Vertebrates had unique features that enabled them to adapt to living on land. In this way many niches were filled, thereby opening up the land even further for the other forms of life! The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Our friend, the Flixies, learns how important the interaction between plants and animals is. They learn how plants, as they spread over the earth, also serve to keep the soil “stuck” to the earth with their roots. In flowering plants it is particularly the reproduction that developed quite cleverly and the Flixies are impressed with the ways in which plants distribute their seeds. The Teacher’s Guide includes:

The Flixies share an entertaining time together in the wetlands. Kwax and Crox, the two water Flixies, stage a play act as though they are some of the ancient lobe-finned fish that first stuck their heads out of water. They crawl about in the muddy waters and wonder it must be like to live on dry land. And so the Flixies learn about all the problems that vertebrates possibly had to face with the transition from life in water to life on land… The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Superior CAPS coverage and written by expert authors. Superior
illustrations and activities to improve results and motivate learners.
Superior teacher support to save time and make teaching easy. Superior
quality = exam success!
Tests and test Answers, Tools to help you assess progress and diagnose problem areas. Notes and tips to support learning.
A dyslexia-friendly font is used throughout the workbooks. It is extremely quick and easy for teachers to implement in their classroom or to assign as homework. Questions consolidate reading and comprehension and allow teachers to check that children actually read and comprehend the texts. It is easy for children to use independently, allowing them to take control of their reading journey, or with a parent’s assistance. Features

New wave spelling – A phonics-based approach is a whole-school spelling workbook series. The spelling lists within each unit are organised with a phonetic emphasis. Each workbook is supported by a comprehensive teacher resource book containing support material to enhance the teaching and learning opportunities provided in its corresponding workbook. Features:
The English workbook educator guide is a resource written to support the teaching in The English Workbook series. The workbooks, designed to improve and develop learners’ literacy skills, consist of ten units of work, each focused on one of the following writing formats: procedures, recounts, expositions, narratives and reports. Each unit includes:
My Word Bank is a personal dictionary that contains a wide range of commonly used words and space for students to record their own words. During any lesson where students are required to write, My Word Bank will be an essential companion. If a student needs a word but doesn’t know how to spell it, he/she can use My Word Bank to find the correct spelling. If the word isn’t already located in My Word Bank, the student can look it up in a classroom dictionary then copy it into his/her writing and into his/her Word Bank. That way, the next time the word is needed, it will be at hand! Difficult to spell and commonly confused words are featured under each letter of the alphabet.
