The first in the_ Tenth Planet Literacy Series_, Letter Sounds is a word-building program that focuses on the connection between consonants and their sounds. By presenting a balanced approach to phonics instruction, this program empowers students with decoding strategies that will help them with future reading and writing. The power of technology as a teaching tool becomes clear in the engaging activities that allow students to sort pictures by sound, create their own word banks and receive continuous audio feedback. The transition from word building to reading and writing occurs as students apply their understanding of the letter-sound relationship in playful compositions of tongue twisters and jump rope jingles that can be saved in personalized journals.
Students experience a range of activities that help them:
- Identify consonant sounds in words and connect those sounds to letters
- Sort pictures and objects into groups based on like sounds
- Build word families by manipulating consonant sounds
- Identify initial and final letter sounds in words by sequencing letters
- Apply letter-sound knowledge to begin to read and write words
- Compose tongue twisters and songs based on initial sounds
Presenting a balanced approach to phonics instruction, this curriculum-based program combines effective hands-on activities with powerful multimedia software to inspire students to become fluent readers, better spellers and confident writers. These lively, open ended, and visually exciting programs are aligned with the IRA/NCTE standards, as well as the newest, challenging state standards for language arts. Letter Sounds is recommended for emerging readers on the PreK-1 level, though the program's rich content can support the interest of an older child for whom continued instruction is needed.
