    A photocopiable activity book to accompany a set of decodable Phonic Books for older readers.

    Dark Waters Activities is an older reader activity book that introduces children to a few letters and sounds at a time. This activity book accompanies Dark Waters and is aimed at older children in need of support with their reading, teaching different letter patterns through a series of activities.

    Photocopiable activities in this book accompany the set of 10 books in the Dark Waters series for ages 9-12 (KS2). This activity book is designed for reluctant readers to practice different suffixes, prefixes and root words.

    Phonic Books Dark Waters shares the same phonic progression as Phonic Books Amber Guardians and can be used together to consolidate phonemic knowledge and reading skills.

    This 240-page phonics activity book features:
    • Activities to practice previously taught spellings in Dark Waters.
    • Each unit introduces new letters and sounds by sounding them out (sat, s - a - t).
    • Reading material aimed at older children who need support with their reading.
    • Phonics progression of different suffixes, prefixes and root words.

    What is phonics?

    Phonics is a way of teaching children to read by understanding the sounds that individual letters make and blending them to make a word. Children can learn to read using this skill to decode new words. Phonic Books specialises in decodable, systematic books supporting this structured literacy instruction.
    Phonic Books specialises in publishing decodable, synthetic phonics books for beginner readers and reading catch-up. Phonic Books was founded by three special needs teachers passionate about teaching all children to read. Using their expertise, they set about developing phonics reading books for young children and older readers who need support. View titles by Phonic Books
