Dad creates a robot to do the household chores - but things get out of control! Written using the Read Write Inc method, for children to practise decoding words and reading through phonics

The Read Write Inc. Phonics storybooks provide structured practice for children in decoding words and reading through phonics. Each set of books is carefully graded so children can read them with confidence.
Read Write Inc. Phonics storybooks help parents support their child by:

Using Ruth Miskin's successful tried-and-tested phonic methodology for reading success

Offering practical and effective advice in guiding their child through every story

Building confidence using fun and engaging stories with opportunities for talk and praise throughout

The structured phonic stories in Books 3a and 3b are written for children to gain confidence as they read one whole story to a parent from beginning to end with plenty of phonics practice.

Red Ned Book 3b is a fun, lively story about a father who builds a robot to help with house chores. Things begin well as Ned the robot dusts and cleans but then things get out of control. Ned collapses and Dad has to put him back together again.

Every rhyming story uses artwork by Tim Archbold, who uses a style that has been likened Quentin Blake's, which children love.

It is recommended that parents use the RWI Phonics Speed Sound Flashcards Set 1 to practice before and alongside children reading any of the RWI story books.

Reading steps for success:

Practise reading the Speed Sounds before each story

Read the Red and Green words before each story

Read the story to decode every word

Re-read the story to reinforce meaning

Re-read the story for fluency
