Minecraft Ecology: Plains
Welcome to the wide, green plains of Minecraft, where the grass stretches out as far as you can see! Can you hear a horse neigh near the fence, or spot a cow grazing in the shade? Which peaceful mobs live in this sunny neighbourhood, and why does a farmer need to balance the herd? This decodable reader practises the ’eigh’ phonogram with words like ’eighty,’ ’neigh,’ ‘weighs,’ and ‘outweigh.’
Not Again, Dr. Can Do!
Dr. Can Do’s workshop is a disaster zone - redstone dust everywhere, contraptions piled high, and is that a chicken clucking under the repeaters? When he finally decides to tidy up, he spots mountains of extra stone and deepslate that simply have to go. But will a sensible inventor carry it outside, or will Dr. Can Do build something wildly clever instead? This decodable reader practises soft c in words such as ‘place,’ ‘space,’ ‘decides,’ ’notices,’ and ’excellent.’
Ouch! Don't Touch That Cactus!
Dr Can Do has a brilliant plan: build a machine that turns cactus into bone meal so Jill never runs out of golden carrots again! But have you ever tried to pick up a giant, prickly cactus? OUCH! How will Dr Can Do haul those spiky plants all the way home from the desert without poking holes in his hands? This decodable reader practises the ‘ough’ phonogram in words like ‘brought,’ ’enough,’ ’tough,’ and ’through.’
Pests!
Skel loves his brick house spotless, from the floors right up to the ceiling - but Zom and Jack think cleaning is weird and would rather flop in the sunny yard.

This decodable reader practises the ’ei’ sound in words like ‘ceiling,’ ’eight,’ ‘seized,’ and ‘weirdly.’
Into the Nether!
Jill needs ancient debris to craft a shiny new pickaxe - but the only place to find it is the Nether, a fiery world full of lava and strange fire-walking creatures! Can the Mage really build a portal to take them there? Would you dare ride a Strider across bubbling lava, or would you build a bridge instead? What waits on the other side? This decodable reader practises the soft c sound in words like ‘certainly,’ ‘place,’ ‘since,’ and ‘recited.’
Minecraft Ecology: Forests
Step into the shady world of Minecraft forests, where oak and birch trees pack tight and the floor stays cool and dim. Can Alex keep her wits about her when thick leaves block her view and mobs lurk behind every trunk? Why is wood the most treasured thing in the game, and what happens when too many trees fall? Gather provisions, spot rare dark oaks, and help replant a greener world. This decodable reader practises si making /zh/ in words like ’treasure,’ ‘vision,’ ‘unusual,’ and ‘decision.’
Llama Drama
BOOM. BOOM. BOOM. What is shaking the walls of Skel’s farmhouse in the middle of the night?

Can Skel and Zom ever get rid of this woolly, wobbling herd? This decodable reader practises the gn phonogram in words like ‘gnashing,’ ‘gnawed,’ ‘resigned,’ and ‘designed.’
