Master the sounds of letters, not just their names, to unlock the joy of reading! This approach emphasizes phonetic awareness as the key to early reading success.

Learn to read.

A crucial role in a child's reading journey is played by the accompanying adult, who can engage in specific exercises. These exercises help children visually connect letter sounds with the correct lip and mouth movements.

We start by focusing on simpler letters, using them to form common words and animal names. The emphasis is on pronouncing the sound of the letter, not its name.

Initially, adults should practice with the child, remembering that reading is a process. Once comfortable, children can independently use the application, with occasional joint practice sessions. Later, adults can use the "Discover the Word" section for further exercises:

1. Ask the child to pronounce the sounds of the letters in the word "TREE."
2. After some practice, ask, "What did you say?"
3. Resist the urge to tell the child the word.

Repeat this, encouraging faster pronunciation of the letter sounds, gradually reducing the pauses between each sound. Continue this exercise, patiently waiting for the child to independently identify the word. The moment the child says, "I said TREE!", celebrate their success – they've begun to read!

Soon, a strong interest in reading will emerge. This is the time to gradually introduce more complex letter sounds, like the variations of "C" (soft as in "sky," hard as in "house"). Other previously omitted letters can be added. Remember to respect each child's individual pace and learning style.
