Learn to read by focusing on the sounds of letters, not their names. Adult involvement is crucial. Guided exercises, using simple letters to form common words and animal names, are key. Pronounce the sounds of the letters, not their names. Initially, adults should practice with the child, gradually transitioning to independent practice with occasional joint sessions.
The "Discover the Word" section offers further exercises: Ask the child to pronounce the sounds of letters in a word like "TREE." After practice, ask "What did you say?" Resist the urge to tell them the word. Repeat, encouraging faster pronunciation, shortening the pauses between sounds. Eventually, the child will spontaneously identify the word ("TREE!"). Celebrate this milestone! Their reading journey has begun.
Increased interest in reading will follow. Gradually introduce more complex letter sounds, like the variations of "C" (soft as in "sky," hard as in "house"). Introduce remaining letters at their own pace. Remember to respect each child's individual learning journey.
