Welcome to
Piper Books publishers of:
BRI: Beginning
Reading Instruction and
ARI: Advanced Reading Instruction
BRI-ARI are great value, easy-to-use books to teach any child to read. The programme consists of over 150 decodable readers that support synthetic phonics.
- Only five sounds are introduced in the first three books. These gradually
increase at child-pace, with frequent repetitions. “I can read books!” becomes
a reality.
- The stories are meticulously structured, with lively animal characters
and clever plots that immediately engage the child’s attention.
- Careful introduction of new sound-letter(s), intense decoding practice
and overlearning ensure that children understand how to read.
- The programme can be used alone or with any other
programme as an intervention with struggling readers and children diagnosed
with dyslexia.
- No external workbooks or drill. The focus is on the “how to” of reading text.
“Not only does BRI teach kids to read, it teaches adults HOW to teach
reading.”
SPELL, starting after a child has learnt to blend the letter/sounds in BRI 1 Books 1–12, includes dictation, high-frequency word practice and code reinforcement. An accompanying booklet gives teachers the opportunity to liaise with parents and track homework.
BACK-UP! CATCH-UP! A straightforward guide for Teaching Assistants and volunteer parents. Clear, simple instructions include suggested role-play for BRI 1, Book 1.
