[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. Do you have to wait until your child knows all their letters?[/quote] I don’t think it’s necessary, some may disagree. It certainly helps but they really pick them up as they go. Start with uppercase letter matching activities, lots of focus on letter names rather than letter sounds, keep words simple like 2-3 letters until they know them all. Figure out which letters they do know and focus on the others. ABC song. If they don’t pick it up naturally after a few months though then I’d probably isolate them. It’s hard to move to letter sounds if they can’t name the letter. Depends on age too, at 3 I’d roll with it, at 6 I’d be questioning why they don’t know that basic skill yet. [/quote]
