Monster phonics is a great concept but is poorly executed. Unfortunately the scheme often doesn’t follow its own rules (an example being the word ‘put’ which it leaves all in black indicating you should pronounce it phonetically and therefore like ‘putt’). When I then have to ‘correct’ my son, despite him following the rule he has been taught perfectly, he then get frustrated. Unfortunately this isn’t an isolated example, the books are riddled with them. As I said, great concept, but it’s such a shame the people who wrote the books couldn’t follow their own rules.
