The Fresh Start Readers support the Read Write Inc. Fresh Start programme

and are designed for independent reading in class or at home, after students have finished the Modules. The books are aligned to the phonic progression of the Modules to ensure students are confident in reading them independently and that they experience success. This Reader contains two texts which align with the phonic focus of Module 25 and Module 26.

In Goat Boy, strange things start to happen to Billy when he starts a new school. Then meet The EDGE Crew - a group of very odd but important animals.

Each book contains two high-interest fiction or non-fiction texts on topics that will appeal to older readers. There is a variety of genres across the series, including stories, graphic texts, narrative non-fiction and quizzes -

so there's something for everyone.

The books have a grown-up look and feel that resembles the books their

peers are reading. They contain appealing, age-appropriate black and white or two-colour illustrations, and full-colour photos. Crucially, they feel

manageable for struggling readers, avoiding large blocks of text and including short chapters and feature words. Independent reading is supported by a page before each text containing the Green Words, Red Words and Challenge Words they will come across in the text.
