[quote=Anonymous]My 3.5 year knows all his letters and letter sounds. He can spell his name and even spell some other sight words. He can not name me words that sorts with a specific letter. I could ask to name me words that starts with S and he will say snake only because that's the picture that goes with S on his puzzles, he can not name anything else that starts with S even though he knows the sound.

Tomorrow he has show and share at preschool and he has to bring something that starts with the Letter D and despite them going over items all week that start with the letter D he could not remember any of them. I said what about dragon can you sound out the word dragon and he went "dragon ddddragon da da dragon." I said good what letter do you think dragon starts with! His response "umm.. k." I said well hmmm you said da da da dragon what letter makes the Da sound? He happily told me D makes that sound. Good so what letter does da da dragon start with? "Umm I dunno a B?"

How is he completely missing this concept. It is like he has no understanding of the concept. How can I help him understand the words correlate with the sound? [/quote]
