[quote=Anonymous]We used Bob books with my 4 year old. But she was doing preschool in Spanish where early phonics are all syllable based. They’d pick a letter of the week and learn all of the vowel combination sounds for that consonant. So ma, me, mi, mo, mu, etc. I agree that being able to blend letter sounds just sort of clicks, and if it’s not clicking, then take a break and give it more time. Maybe try the consonant vowel pairs first to see if that helps it click. But 4 is very young. Mine asked to learn to read and it was the pandemic, so we had time to kill. But she really was the first of her friends, though 4 years later everyone else is totally caught up and you can’t tell who learned at 4 or 6 years old.[/quote]
