Description
As children learn to read, they develop an understanding of the relationship between letters and their sounds. Decoding is a crucial building block for children to become skilled readers. Allow children to explore their Beginning Word Builder by swapping out letter rings, turning the rings to reveal new letters, and turning the center vowel dial. Encourage children to say the letters and letter sounds as they are uncovered. This free play will help children become more confident with letter and sound recognition.
The activity set includes Beginning Word Builder, 8 letter rings, 1 dry-erase ring, 1 dry-erase marker, 9 vowel-consonant/consonant-vowel, 51 consonant-vowel-consonant cards, and 1 write ‘n’ wipe activity card. ~Amber
