Big Kid Reader Maker
Set the age, interests and the sounds they know, get a simple decodable book that does not look babyish.
A ten year old who is still learning to read does not want a book with a bunny on the cover. Put in the age and the interests (skateboards, gaming, footy), the sounds or level they can handle, and how long it should run. Back comes a decodable book with simple text and cover art that looks like it belongs to an older kid, with no baby animals and no nursery colours. Print it on A4 and it sits on the desk without drawing attention. The words are controlled to the sounds you list, so it works alongside whatever phonics program the school uses.
