Our Literacy Kit is perfect for young learners who have already grasped their ABC’s and are ready for the next step in practicing their letter knowledge; ready to turn letters in to simple words. Creating simple words will also promote early reading. The kit includes three learning activities including simple animal-themed Consonant-Vowel-Consonant (CVC) words, common sight words, and secret code words for children to decode and learn. The objects can also be used in many other ways as your child explores and leads the play. All three learning activities are aimed at three to six-year-olds and include descriptive information which outlines a targeted learning intention and the skills your child will gain.
There are variations and tips to increase the challenge, depending on individual skill level or age and the kit includes resources and educational aids to facilitate and promote our ‘hands on’ learning approach and to encourage interaction. There’s no printing, laminating or searching for materials – everything your little learner needs is packed in the box ready to go.
Most importantly, let your child have fun and watch them flourish before your eyes.
