[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don’t worry about phonics. Get the books of Pig and the Elephant,very simple and perfect for learning how to read at a young age. Just read to her pointing the words while youread. Very soon she will conbect words and dounds. It worked wonders with my own kid[/quote] I think this works with some kids, but highly disagree that you don't need to worry about phonics. Phonics creates the strongest readers and the most independent readers fastest. There is literally no downside to giving them an early, strong foundation in phonics, and a precocious, interested 4 year old will run with it and develop reading fluency on their own. [/quote]
