Phonics Monster - Book 4

Phonics Monster - Book 4 offers a comprehensive introduction to consonant blends (such as bl, cl, gl, dr, fr, tr, sw) and consonant digraphs (such as sh, ch, th, ph), as well as a review of short and long vowel sounds. Each new sound is introduced with an extensive word list and several sentences that allow students to practice reading and pronouncing the sound correctly. There are also speed-reading exercises, games, and several activities and quizzes so that students can attain a thorough understanding of all consonant blends and digraphs.

Phonics Monster - Book 4 is especially useful for ESL/EFL learners, as it includes a focus on similar sounds (thr vs. fr, for example) that may be especially difficult for non-native English speakers to pronounce correctly. Included throughout the book are several full-colour monster illustrations.
