When my kids were babies, I decided to take an \"immersion\" approach to literacy just as you would a second language. Everywhere they looked there were words....lots of different DVD's, software programs, apps, physical books, you name it. They couldn't HELP but learn! We started our day with a reading lesson at breakfast just to ensure the day did not slip away from us. For any software programs, I connected the laptop to a big flat screen TV and babies just love the enormous font.

Hi you can take a look at my new blog for some ideas. I use Letterland to teach my kids phonics at home.

Give me your feedback too! Thanks!



You have an interesting blog. However, the part on using apple to do apple printing is considered food wastage. The alternative that you provide to do apple salad is a good idea too. :rahrah:



Thanks for reading my blog! I'm going to launch a new book rental service for children and families! Check out our FB page at http://www.facebook.com/sammybooksrental and join our mailing list at http://www.sammybooks.com!

Hi mummies out there,


My gal is 4year 2month,I have been reading to her and she can read sight words.because of some financial issue,I can't afford to send her to phonics class and I'm hoping that I can teach her phonics myself at home.

I'm just an olevel graduate and not good in English so I hope mummies who are teaching their kids phonics at home kindly share here .. Really hope to get reply and discussion on how to teach phonics.

I used to follow tamarind blog but it was taken down.so I really don know where should I start or any blog I can follow now.

Thanks in advance
Kate

Their books always have generously sized print which emergent readers appreciate and it is on the opposite side of the page as the illustration.


http://www.preschoolprepco.com/phonics/ ... xcuP_mSzuw

Along with the phonics books, they have sight word easy readers as well and very effective \"meet the sightwords\" apps and DVD's. (Apps may not be available in Singapore, not sure if they are posted in your appstore or not.) In general I love anything by this company! However, the DVD's may be slow for older kids but they are perfect for babies and toddlers without a doubt. Some older preschoolers may still like them, too. Leapfrog videos are a definite YES for all preschoolers, but I would hesitate to use them with tiny babies. They are a bit \"busy,\" somewhat have a plot and some humor mixed in, I would probably wait until age 1-2 to introduce them. But with Preschool prep videos, I would probably start even younger as they are straight forward.

Also, don't forget that youtube is a wonderful FREE resource and so is http://www.readingbear.org. Totally free and entirely phonics based. I, of course, love Little Reader by Brillkids, but there are MANY great products out there. I have layered them all at the same time in the past and watched my kids progress skyrocket. 🙂 Good luck!!

You can buy Audio CDs for your kids. These CDs are great cos the stories will be read out in perfect pronunciation and diction, and some even include pronunciation tips and lessons throughout.

Please share here tks on Tue, 18 Feb 2014 01:27:07 GMT]]>My kids started with leapfrog DVDs, where they learnt about vowel and consonants sounds, to blending and forming more complex words.


To strengthen what they learn, we bought a set of Phonics Readers and Workbooks from Popular and work through them with the kids. I think they are from pelangi (Not very sure), set of 4 thin readers and workbook and comes with CD/DVD too.

Together with that, we read every night. Started with us reading to the kids, then read together, e.g. I read 1 sentence, they read another sentence, then slowly, they can read the whole book by themselves. We didn't do the ladybird Peter and Jane..it was too boring for my kids, and for me too. Instead, we did mainly Usborne (very good levelled readers) and Dr Seuss.

There is also a very good website, can print and practice: http://progressivephonics.com/
(currently free)

You can also get a set of books (I used one of the Ladybird series, but there are many other sets of readers now) and just work through them.
