Introduction

Remember when you were first learning to read?

How did you say the letters and build up simple words: c-a-t, s-a-t, m-a-t?

The READ RIGHT AWAY series is based on this traditional principle, helping your child to read in a systematic way, using what is called the phonic approach.

Each of the four READING PACKS in the series contains two separate programs which have been specifically designed by Psychologists and teachers to help your child progress naturally, at their own pace, to mastery of a wide range of reading skills.

The outstanding graphics and entertainment quality of these games will make your child eager to learn and progress through the series.

Monster Hunt

The silent letters have been captured by the gorg, and you have to try and rescue them.

The higher the skill level you choose the less mistakes you are allowed.

Playing Monster Hunt

1. Pressing ESCAPE ends the game 2. Move the spaceman with the arrows on the right of the keyboard 3. Press RETURN when his release gun is underneath a silent letter 4. If you release all the silent letters, they will walk into the transporter - but the gorg will try and squash the spaceman

If you have any bullets left, press RETURN to try and vapourise the gorg.

Surfari

You will be shown four words, each of which has a "sh" sound in the middle, but the "sh" sound could be spelt by the letters "ti", "si" or "ci".

Using the surfer, you have to choose the right letter to fit each of the words.

If you fill all the words correctly, the surfer will go around the course again - but this time you have to press J at the right moment to help him jump onto the things that carry him.

Playing Surfari

1. Pressing ESCAPE ends the game 2. Move your surfer left and right with the arrows on the right of the keyboard 3. Press RETURN when your surfer is underneath the letter that would fit in the word where there is a "*".
