Great for beginning readers. This invaluable learning kit includes a reproducible lyrics/resource book along with an audio CD. The 12 original songs, each teaching different letter sounds, are accompanied by reproducible lessons and exercises allowing readers to practice and reinforce what they are learning while reading along with the music. Using the synthetic phonics approach, this volume teaches: initial blends, common word families, consonants (k, hard c, soft c), consonant digraphs (ch, sh, th, wh, ng), variant vowels (oo), dipthongs (oi, ay, oy), silent consonants (h and k) and the sound of igh.
