From a young age children will hear thousands of words being spoken everyday.
Phonics is a method for teaching children how to read and write by sounding out the sounds that make words.
The method of phonics is by instruction that helps children learn and be able to use the alphabetic principle – the concept that words are made up of letters, and letters represent sounds.
At First Steps we nurture children’s development in learning the letter sounds that children will use to form a simple words.
In our kindergarten program we will use the phonics program to support your child to learn to read and write as part of school readiness program.
