[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid learned phonics by looking at words while I read aloud slowly and pointed. It won’t work for every single person, but it works for most. Human brains are primed for language. [/quote] It's better if someone actually learns phonics and the rules behind language. Like adding an e to the end of words changes the vowel sound. Like ton vs tone. Considering that schools are really struggling with illiteracy right now, humans aren't primed for reading. Language, yes. [/quote]
