Get both educational sets from Quality Montessori and teach your child how to blend letters into words and more. A perfect gift for kids or teachers. Great for home schools too. Strengthen and improve your child’s self-confidence with reading. Quality Montessori Phonetic Reading Blocks are perfect for the beginning reader. Your child will delight in twisting the blocks to discover new letters and lots of words, especially ones that rhyme. Take your child to the next level with tangible, self-corrected learning. Go from learning individual letter sounds to blending actual words. All words are in the dictionary, although some are less well known than others, and phonetic. Once your child has mastered reading Quality Montessori’s three-letter Phonetic Reading Blocks, introduce the Silent E blocks. Twist the end block to reveal and hide the silent e to create words with both short and long vowel sounds. Easy to use, first twist the end block to hide the e. Have the child read the 3 letter phonetic word showing. Then, twist the end block to reveal the e. Explain to the child that in this word, the e does not make a sound, but it does have a job. Explain that the e makes the vowel say its name. For example: man becomes mane, fad becomes fade and so on. Practice reading the new word together. Show the child another word with the same vowel. Continue reading words in this manner, helping when necessary and eventually moving on to other vowels. The carefully chosen font matches other Montessori materials and can be used with children who are learning print or cursive. A fun educational toy and a must have language work for the Montessori 3-6 year old primary preschool and kindergarten classroom.
