Reading Race is a four-game series from PLD Literacy & Learning, developed for 5-6 year olds by Australian speech pathologist Diana Rigg.
***Reading Race 1a: CVC words is the first in the four-game ‘Reading Race’ series of reading apps from PLD Literacy & Learning. This fun educational game app was designed for children between the ages of 4 and 6.
CVC words or consonant-vowel-consonant words are simple three-letter words such as mat, dog and sit.
This game gives children an opportunity to start sounding out simple CVC words in a sequential, intuitive synthetic phonics manner. Children will get practice sounding out words of increasing length and complexity as they progress through the game, which emphasises phonetic sounds and alphabet sounds instead of letter names.
While playing Reading Race, children will also gain experience with sight words and spelling.

Designed by Australian Speech Pathologist, Diana Rigg, this game introduces these phonic concepts in a fun, gradual way that builds in complexity as children progress through the game.
Children will get practice sounding out words and blending sounds, which is especially key for progressing in literacy.
