Fun Family Phonics
Muriel Endersby
This is a multi-day workshop. Please ensure you are available for all the dates listed below:
July 1st through July 31st, 2023. Complete at your own pace.
An exciting program that gives children a playful head-start learning to read. The Fun Family Phonics program is popular because it appeals to the way children think and learn. Come and join Detective "Dave Fun" as he discovers all the alphabet letters by observing the world around him.
In Book 1: Dave links the sounds and shapes of each lowercase letter. The singalong song, together with the pictures, actions, and games, make it fun and reinforce learning. Each story in Book 1A is an extension of the story in Book 1. However, in this story this is where Dave discovers the uppercase letters. The story and pictures make it easy for children to link them together. A singalong CD for this book makes learning fun.
In Book 2: Fun Family Rhymes, Dave discovers how to blend sounds together to make 3-letter words. Music is a great teaching tool, and songs for this book make learning easy!
Parents and educators will enjoy learning these fun teaching tools and songs. This program is also ideal for children learning English.
Kids LOVE it!
