Learning to Read



John Palmer has known his letters and letter sounds for a couple years now. Recently, I've been working with him on blending sounds to read words. Overall, he's reading words that he's seen before and memorized. He's learning a whole new batch of words called "sight words" - words that don't really follow any phonics rules. He and Ellie have done this by watching Preschool Prep's DVD series called Meet the Sight Words. You can find them at www.preschoolprepco.com. Very cool!
