Intervention Comics – Set 1

A highly engaging set of phonics comics designed to boost reading confidence in KS2 children who need extra support with phonics. Ideal for small group reading, intervention, or catch-up, they are also a fun, fresh option for KS1 group reading.

📦 What’s Included

• Set of 20 full-colour A4 comics
• Focus on high-frequency graphemes, tricky letters, and phonics families
• Designed for KS2 catch-up but equally effective in KS1
• Easy-to-read comic format, ideal for reluctant readers

📚 How the Comics are Structured

• 12 comics focus on individual high-frequency graphemes:
  a_e, ay, ee, ea, y (long E), i_e, igh, y (long I), o_e, oo, ou, ow
• 2 comics explore tricky letters: soft g, soft c, and le endings
• 6 comics introduce ‘phonics families’, showing different ways to spell the same long vowel sound
