Do you understand the information and recommendations provided within the AU Inquiry into the teaching of Literacy (2005)? This inquiry was in line with The Rose Report (UK) - another government funded research project, carried out to find out why we are failing so many of our children with regards to literacy
"Because every child needs to succeed before Year 3" Early reading and spelling success is vital- doesnt every child deserve it?
Read Australia™ welcomes you to 'Phonics Australia™!' Working with parents and teachers to raise standards of literacy across Australia by acknowledging the findings, and addressing the recommendations, outlined in the AU Inquiry in the teaching of literacy, 2005. Our priority is to ensure that teachers use a preventative approach to illiteracy- refusing to allow children to fail to learn to read and spell well within the first three years of school.

Please ask us about delivering literacy related workshops and training at The Early Reading Centre™, on the Gold Coast SE Queensland- we have a training centre,
with on-site refreshments., set in a beautiful tranquil setting with ample car parking!
A variety of programs and strategies are used, in order to meet the individual needs of children eg THRASS, Jolly Phonics, Superphonics (Read Write Inc) ALL are based on phonics- not 'whole words'; we teach children to crack the code, so that they are not relying on memory- and then struggle when they come across new words. Why make things complicated? We teach children to crack the code, and read as quickly as they, the individual, are able to do so.
If you have quality phonics activities and/ or programs please do contact us! If they meet the criteria, we are happy to offer information on the Read Australia and Phonics Australia web sites, and may even use them at The Early Reading Centre, SE Queensland
Through our Head Office-
The Early Reading Centre™,we offer private sessions, small group coaching, workshops & training for parents and teachers.

The Child Listener™ created 'Read Australia™' in 2006 and is Read Australia was created in 2006, as a free resource for parents and teachers interested in learning more about how to teach children to read and spell well! opening The Early Reading Centre™ in June. Emma, along with other literacy specialists, will teach you - the parents and carers- how to teach your child to
read and spell, and ensure that you know what your child's teacher should be doing (according to the recommendations outlined in the 2005 government report )
You will be able to offer fun, quality, learning experiences and opportunities
for your children at home.

Human brains are naturally wired to speak; they are not naturally wired to read and write!

ALL children will learn to read using a systematic direct approach to teaching
reading and spelling using phonics- so this should be used for ALL children
, not later on with those who are failing. By empowering parents, more children
will read quickly, feel good about themselves - and become 'reader's for life!
