## Description

Product Description Fred Frog is a fun character who can say and read words only in pure sounds. This beanie toy can be used flexibly as part of the Read Write Inc. Phonics programme to help introduce children to letters, sounds and words in a fun, dynamic and fast-paced way. Read Write Inc. is the leading phonics teaching programme in UK primary schools. It uses ongoing assessment, clear progression, lots of practice, and a lively and fun approach to engage and motivate children from the start. It gets children reading and writing - fast! Review Due to the success of RWI, Ruth Miskin is currently involved in a series of nationwide training programmes for primary schools commissioned by the UK government, aimed at training teachers in effective phonics teaching.In 2007 the UK's Channel 4 broadcast a series of programmes featuring Ruth Miskin working in a failing school, using the RWI programme to raise standards. In the course of the series, struggling and non-readers were shown developing new confidence, competence and enthusiasm for reading. The results make a compelling case for the effectiveness of the RWI programme.Read Write Inc. actually teaches children to read and write. We love using this programme because children achieve so much so quickly. They want to read and write. It's the best literacy programme we have ever known. ― Lorna Jackson, Headteacher, Maryland Primary SchoolRead Write Inc. has improved our standards in reading, writing, spelling and partner work. It has brought the fun back into literacy. ― Woodlands School, Bradford

Review: We bought Fred the Frog because he’s used at my daughter’s school during Read Write Inc. phonics lessons, and she was so excited to have her own at home. The toy itself is really well made — soft, cuddly, and nice quality stitching. It’s been a great way to make learning feel fun and familiar. My daughter loves holding Fred while we practise sounds together, and it helps her feel connected to what she’s doing at school. He’s the perfect size for little hands, easy to carry around, and doubles up as a comfort toy too. Overall, a brilliant purchase — both as a cuddly toy and as a learning aid. Highly recommend for anyone whose child is using Read Write Inc. at school.
Review: I brought this for my then 4 year old (now 6) when doing read write inc in reception. I think this helped along with the Fred talk. I just wanted to get him comfortable with phonics we didn’t really use him much but more of a reminder and he used it to try teach our dog and younger brother sounds. There are beads inside, fairly small size but very suitable for our needs. He still sleeps in his bed every night.
