Sal's Red Sock — Sue Graves

In this story, Dad has to pick up Nan, but he has not got his sock. Sal has a red sock, but will it fit Dad? Controlled vocabulary is expanded through four levels, following the popular "Letters and Sounds" phonics scheme from Phase 2 to Phase 4, building up from simple CVC words (level 1) to double letter sounds (level 2), two letter graphemes (level 3), and adjacent consonants (level 4). A simple puzzle encourages children to spot the rhyming words and an Espresso Connections section suggests further activities on Espresso Education. Produced in association with Espresso Education, the leading digital curriculum service in the UK -- used in over 10,000 schools.
