  • Experience with cause and effect and developing access skills
  • Exploring books independently perhaps for the first time
  • Recognising sounds and letters, and developing early literacy

Key features

  • 16 original animated stories
  • 4 stages of progression
  • 95 letter sounds and 100 high frequency words
  • 64 learning activities
  • Symbolised chat grids for every story

How it works

Step one – Choose from one of the 16 stories about the magical adventures of a young boy called Pip and his family.

Step two – See the words of the story displayed on the screen. Look, touch, press your switch or move your mouse over the words to hear them read aloud.

Step three – When you have read the whole sentence, fun animations will bring the story to life.

16 animated stories across 4 stages

The stories in Look to Read are grouped into four different reading stages – each stage gradually introduces new sounds and vocabulary to build on what you’ve already learned.
As you progress through the stages they introduce more complex sounds, and longer stories with more words on the page.

Activities

Each story comes with four accompanying activities, exploring everything from phonic sounds and story recall, to building words and sentences with keywords from the books.

Listen & Spell – Hear individual words and spell them out using the letter sounds

Building Words – Listen to and build key words

Find the Words – Hear and find key words
