Teaching Kids to Read
Author: Fay Tran

Teaching Kids to Read is designed to have an impact on every school-age child in Australia - and their parents and teachers.  Learning to read and write is the most imporatant skill a child needs to acquire - everything else they do in life depends on it, including their schooling, tertiary studies and future employment.

In 2011, Australia will have a National Curriculum for the first time and the first and most vital component will be teaching literacy using phonics - an easy-to-follow sound and visual system that went out of fashion in the 1980s but is now back with a bang.

Fay Tran's book is the first book to explain how ordinary Australian parents with no teaching background themselves can use this method to teach their kids to read.
