What is the phonics program exactly?

February 21st, 2010 by admin

I remember seeing the first phonics program on television on an infomercial about 20 years ago. This was the greatest thing invented since sliced bread and parents absolutely loved it. The thing about phonics is there have been several thousand new renditions of the original and every single one of them work very well. Some work better for some children and for children of different ages there are programs that tend to feel more comfortable. Phonics is essentially learning letters and words through the “sound” of the letters and the words. It teaches your child to read phonetically and has a track record of speeding up their ability to learn to read very quickly.
