Ds is 5 yrs and has changed schools. Previous school set 10 min Phonic homework for Ds every night. Very short little books highlighting one letter. Also a little bit of writing. This really worked for our lad, honest. Since he has had 4 week break he is back to square one. He is a lovely kid and in his heart he would love to read but his brain isn't co-operating, like his mother
The drip-drip effect worked for our son. Could some one recommend a reading scheme that works this way? Jolly Phonics not for us covers, too much in one go. Thanks for kind advice in advance

Sorry, I didn't make it into a link.
These are excellent and there are plenty of books at the 'Launcher' stage:

Phonic books now has a blog.
They'd love any comments you have once you've tried out the books (positive or otherwise!!)
