Flipping for Phonics
Reading unlocks new worlds to children. They're able to learn on their own and discover the wonders of the written word. Some kids need an extra boost when it comes to reading. Phonics is an instructional method for teaching children to read in English. They learn to connect sounds with letters or groups of letters and then blend the sounds together to produce approximate pronunciations of unknown words.
We recently came across a phonics course that looked really fun and interactive for kids that might shy away from reading. The Hands on Phonics Method Flipping For Phonics has been an instant success and is recommended by educators as the MUST HAVE educational tool. Nova Southeastern University Parent resource centers recommends these products for early readers. This patented flip book is the only one of its kind on the market with 6 columns of letters allowing children to make up to 6 letter words. Flipping For Phonics is self contained easy to use, and child friendly.
Carefully chosen real life pictures represent pure phonetic sounds. This educational tool is used in public, charter and private schools, as well as at home use.
Two other products offered at www.flippingforphonics are a story book featuring 6 delightful word family stories and a musical CD. Recommended for children ages 2 - 7 however really like the fact that Flipping for Phonics can also be used for children with special needs, older children who didn't get a proper reading foundation, or adults who have a reading disability. The kinetic hands-on approach reinforces learning and makes learning to read fun and easy. Flipping for Phonics makes learning FUN and EASY.
In this example we built words with 'ending sounds' by flipping to the letters 'at' and changing the first letter only to make the words: 'bat', 'cat', 'mat' etc. You can just as easily build words with 'beginning sounds' instead and just change the last letter like: 'ba' - bad, bag, bam, ban. You could also keep the same first letter and last letter changing only the vowel like: 'bad', 'bed', 'bid', 'bud'.
The wonderful thing about Flipping for Phonics® is that it can be adapted to be used with whatever reading program you are currently using! In other words, you can:
