5.0 out of 5 stars The Basics, October 30, 2001
This review is from: Phonic Cards: Cracking the Sound Code (Cards)
When children are just beginning to read, they often have a sort of confused look on their face until all of a sudden they get this wonderfully big smile and realize they have broken the reading code. This happened to my niece when I was first teaching her to read. One minute she only knew her alphabet, the next, she was reading three letter words.

These flash cards can be used at home in conjunction with a reading program at school. What you could do is start with the alphabet and use the cards with a green border to associate the alphabet with the sound in a word. Like....y in yellow or h in hen. Your child can get ahead at school if you are willing to spend some time teaching them at home when you can.

This set includes a step-by-step guide. First they show you how to help your child hear simple sounds like b in banana. Then they can start sounding out words like c-a-t.

This also covers short and long vowel sounds. To compliment this mini-program, you will want to pick up a Manuscript Formation Guide and possibly look into a book like: Leonard C. Duncan's How to Teach Phonics. It is nothing fancy, but has lots of extra words and you can make up some of your own 4 x 6 cards. Your child might also get involved in decorating them and you can make it into a fun coloring project.

Other Flashcards in this series: On the Farm, In the Home, Clothes, In the Garden. They are very colorful, durable and have beautiful pictures.
