Hello, hello. I am starting to teach letters to my 2y11m mindee as of tomorrw. I am using and relying heavily on the phonics pack (Letters and Sounds) but would love to hear your good ideas, as well.
Someone one here has done a listening walk (was it Miffy or Dee?), which is Phase 1 from the pack, to teach good listening skills.
First lot of letters to work on is S, A, T and P. I've got all the normal stuff, like flash cards and Leapfrog Fridge Phonics letters. Also have colouring pages. I've thought about baking letter shaped cookies, modelling the letter in clay and creating a tactile alphabet using feathers, rice, pasta, that sort of thing. What else does everyone suggest?
