Review
Due to the success of RWI, Ruth Miskin is currently involved in a series of nationwide training programmes for primary schools commissioned by the UK government, aimed at training teachers in effective phonics teaching.
In 2007 the UK’s Channel 4 broadcast a series of programmes featuring Ruth Miskin working in a failing school, using the RWI programme to raise standards. In the course of the series, struggling and non-readers were shown developing new confidence, competence and enthusiasm for reading. The results make a compelling case for the effectiveness of the RWI programme.
Read Write Inc. actually teaches children to read and write. We love using this programme because children achieve so much so quickly. They want to read and write. It’s the best literacy programme we have ever known. ― Lorna Jackson, Headteacher, Maryland Primary School
Read Write Inc. has improved our standards in reading, writing, spelling and partner work. It has brought the fun back into literacy. ― Woodlands School, Bradford

WRI Fred Puppet
Great item and price. Arrived very quickly. Fred is the puppet used in conjunction with Read Write Inc phonics scheme. Children love the interaction with Fred when learning to sound talk. Please note the puppet doesn’t make sounds, it is purely down to the adult to sound out words for the children.

Lovely soft Fred frog
Bought this for my 6yr old grandson as he loves learning his phonics, spellings & new words with Rosie & Fred while we are in lockdown. He particularly loves Fred so we surprised him and his face was a picture. Fred now goes everywhere with him
