Aside from the Pink Series I made these word family strips. I made 3 for each phonic sounds “a-e-i-o-u”.
At first he struggled with the concept of beginning letter sound and blending. But with practice and his love for playing around the strips, he was able to figure out how it all worked.
So can he read now? Yes! He was able to read them with minimal assistance from me :) Yipee! I couldn’t believe that this technique worked for him.
We still need to do Phonics Beginner Books of Progressive Learning so we can practice reading sentences and phrases.
That's a really neat idea. I'm going to try this with my 4 year old. We are just starting into reading. I could also use it for rhyming. Thanks for sharing it. I love your blog. You do a lot of fun things. I'm following now. We do some fun things on my blog too if your looking for more ideas. http://watchmeplaynlearn.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteThanks. I probably think that he was able to get it right (blending) because they rhyme :) Feel free to try it.
