I've been using Exam Ninja books for around five years to help my nine-year-old daughter with her schooling. We buy a set for each year and my daughter works her way through them, a little each day, with my assistance. These are an excellent resource for boosting a child's learning journey and supporting the school curriculum.

About the Year 2 Phonics Becoming a Reader Reading & Writing Kit (Ages 5-7)

Year 2 Phonics Becoming a Reader Reading & Writing Kit (Ages 5-7) gives your child everything they need to develop confident reading and independent writing skills during Years 1 and 2. Built on Ruth Miskin's proven Read Write Inc. synthetic phonics programme—used by over a quarter of UK primary schools—this complete kit supports the natural progression from sounding out words to reading longer sentences and stories fluently. Six carefully structured storybooks, phonics flashcards, a dedicated handwriting book, and a parent handbook work together to reinforce the core skills your child is learning at school, helping them keep pace with the English National Curriculum expectations for Key Stage 1.

Each component has a clear role: the storybooks introduce longer texts with shared reading prompts so you can guide comprehension and expression; the flashcards build recognition of the next set of sounds that make up everyday words; and the handwriting book provides targeted practice for the vocabulary featured across the kit. The parent handbook offers straightforward advice on how to support your child's developing literacy at home, removing guesswork and giving you practical strategies that align with classroom teaching. Because all six books and materials are designed to complement one another, your child revisits sounds and words in different contexts, which strengthens retention and builds automaticity.

This kit transforms hesitant readers into independent ones by giving children repeated, structured exposure to phonics patterns, sight vocabulary, and handwriting formation. As they progress through the storybooks and activities, pupils gain the stamina to tackle unfamiliar texts and the confidence to express their ideas in writing. The systematic approach mirrors what teachers use in school, so home practice reinforces rather than confuses. Whether your child is in Year 1 or Year 2, this kit provides age-appropriate content that respects their developmental stage while gently stretching their capabilities.

Ideal for parents who want a trusted, school-aligned resource to support phonics, reading comprehension, spelling, punctuation, grammar, and handwriting at home. The kit works as a standalone tool or as the third step in the Read Write Inc. series, giving you flexibility to meet your child exactly where they are. Physical stock ships quickly across the UK, so you can start building those essential literacy foundations without delay.

  • Six storybooks with guided introductions to develop fluency and comprehension in longer texts
  • Phonics flashcards covering the next set of sounds, supporting systematic phonics progression
  • Handwriting book for practising letter formation and writing words from the stories and flashcards
  • Parent handbook with practical strategies to reinforce reading and writing skills at home
  • Aligned to the English National Curriculum for Key Stage 1, suitable for Year 1 and Year 2 pupils (ages 5–7)
