This finely levelled reading instruction programme has been specifically developed for teaching and assessing reading in the Foundation Phase. Each story has been individually developed around the structure and vocabulary of the language for which it was written. The Vuma Reading Instruction Programme has a number of different resources that work together to offer a comprehensive reading solution. Vuma is currently available for English First Additional Language, and Afrikaans, isiXhosa, isiZulu and Sepedi Home Language.

The core resources are: Finely levelled Readers with stories that will delight boys and girls.; Engaging Workbooks with activities to entrench reading and comprehension skills; and Comprehensive Teacher’s Guides with detailed guidance, lesson plans and assessments.

Each book contains 32 weeks of work, arranged into four units. Seven weeks of each unit begin with a new ‘Skill Focus’, addressing a key language concept. Each day, the first two questions will reinforce and consolidate this language concept. The rest of the daily questions will cover common skills of English.

Energise your English programme through comprehensive and structured daily English practice to consolidate learners' ability to read and write.

Build learners’ confidence through improved mastery of spelling, punctuation, phonics, word knowledge and grammar.
