Are my 3-year old son suitable to take phonics class? We have trained him to read by memorising the words… I think this is the way we are being trained in our school days…so is Phonics classes useful?

Hi
My 4yo girl has been with ICR for 9 mths. She is placed in Thinking n creative skills class. She still cant figure out all the phonics so I am worried the program is going too slow…or she is not concentrating?? if I continue her , when will she be able to read simple words ?
I am thinking of switching her out but many seems to find the ICR program good, so I am stuck. Any advice? -
Is the "Read in a week" program run by Kentridge? I went to their branch but the centre is a tuition centre …
-
yup, read in a week classes are in KTC… at least for mine in Yishun…

they will learn hw to break up bigger words, pronounce & put them back to read the whole word...
memorising the words may help but pronouciation may be wrong...
js my opinion..

Phonics is supposed to help with both pronunciation and spelling, as the idea is to teach the sounds of each alphabet and what happens when they're being put together and the sounds blend together. Supposed to be a lot more effective than simply memorising the spelling like during our time. My sis told me her son (who's going to P6 next year) hardly needs to spend time preparing for his spelling tests thanks to the phonics lessons he went to when he was a toddler.
As for which program is more effective, I think it depends more on which one your child enjoys more?
