Fun with Phonics
Teaching children to become excellent readers while having fun! A unique phonics reading program specifically designed for your pre-k or school-age child. Children learn to read by singing while learning their sounds of the alphabet, hopping on letters to form words, painting words and forming words out of play-doh. This program enables your child to learn his or her sounds as well as recognize and become familiar with short vowel word families. Level 2 students will be learning blends and long vowels. They will play board games, build better writing skills in a creative way, and increase their fluency. There is no greater gift you can give your child than the gift of learning to read. Email Miss Betty at readingbooks52@comcast.net for more information or to register for classes.
