Taking a phonological approach, the book is set out in the form of lesson plans designed to be used instantly, requiring no preparation.

Phonics Handbook includes lesson plans for every phonics skill from the basic alphabet sounds through to blends, digraphs, syllable breaking and decoding Latin and Greek words. Each lesson is followed by a worksheet for students.
