Lifeboat Read and Spell Scheme - Book 4
Lessons and Content
Book 4 continues the expansion of knowledge and practice in letter combinations such as i-e, a-e, e-e, o-e. Further blend work is covered including end blends. Lesson 10, as usual, consolidates the work. The progression through Book 4 is enhanced by introducing lessons from Book 9. These more general lessons have been assembled in Book 9 (and Book 10) as they are less sequential to the overall programme.
