The second section of this book (poges 37-95) focuses on 'sound' ond is o gentle
introduction to reoding ond writing.

This book will olso help your child to stort linking letter shopes to letter sounds - on
importont first skill when leorning to reod ond spell. The trick below mokes this often
difficult sound/shope llnk eosy.

The letterlqnd Sound Trick

How to discover eoch letter sound:
The first sound you mqke
when you START to soy ony
Letterlonder's nome is exoctly the
sound thot Ietter mokes in most words!

Useful tips
lnclude leorning the Action Trick for eoch letter on poges 37 - 60 olong with the letter's
sound. While the octions ore fun, linking o body movement with eoch letter's sound olso
strengthens children's memory for the sounds they need to leorn. You could olso both soy
eoch letter's sound to consolidote the shope/sound connection while your child finger troces
its shope, or colours it in.

As you reod eoch letter's coloured sentence, ond point to the words, try exoggeroting the
feotured letter's sound (where possible). Soy the sentence ogoin together o few times,
simply os o listening octivity. Your oim right now is not to teoch your child to reod the
words, but rother to develop their listening skills by helping them to identify those frequently
repeoted sounds ot the stort of the words.

Loter poges, beyond poge 60, feoture the importont listening skill of identifying ond ploying
with rhyming words.
