Reading Unlocked’s

Simplified Phonics™ program

is the easiest way to

Learn to Read.

Reading Unlocked

Our evidence based, structured, synthetic phonics program teaches all pupils to read and write.

Reading Unlocked adapts to each pupil, reviewing mistakes and allowing them to work at their own pace.

Pupils learn to read and spell using phonics. Abstract words are taught separately to make them memorable.

Confidently, pupils learn to read and write in only 10 minutes a day. Each lesson ends with an engaging poem for shared reading, so they experience reading real texts.

Phonics

Our super-strength phonics program teaches pupils how to blend and segment words.

Every word is illustrated, making it accessible for all and helping to improve vocabulary.

Phonological Awareness

Studies show that without targeted intervention, pupils who start school with limited phonological awareness are likely to leave primary as struggling readers.

Activities around hearing and manipulating the sounds in words improve phonological awareness.

Multi-Sensory

Pupils are asked to speak, listen, read, write, draw, sort and clap to engage all their senses and learning styles.

Quick activities engage all pupils, including those with dyslexia and other special educational needs.

Record Readings

A powerful way to improve reading is to listen to yourself read. Pupils record themselves reading, and then the recording is played back.

Recordings can also be accessed on the teacher's dashboard, providing you with evidence of progress.

Abstract Words

Abstract words, like the, is, it and that are taught using an illustrated sentence.

Some pupils think in pictures, not words, and find it hard to read abstract words if they can't visualise them.

Shared Reading

Hilarious, engaging poems are used for shared reading, so that reading is an enjoyable activity.

Shared reading enables pupils to access texts above their reading age, encouraging book talk and oracy skills.
