Teaching Tiles -- Reading Readiness Kit

I had this Reading Readiness kit on my Christmas wish list for Grace because she was ready for more advanced phonological awareness skill practice. Memere & Pepere purchased the kit for Grace last Christmas and we have been having such fun with it ever since! The kit provides Grace with a hands-on approach to develop reading skills. Grace loves the large tiles, her work tray, and all of the activity cards. Grace has mastered all of skills targeted in the kit including: matching upper and lowercase letters, sequencing letters a-z, matching opposites, matching rhyming pictures, matching pictures with the same beginning sounds, matching beginning-letter sounds, and beginning word formation. Grace is able to read so many words now and she has a true understanding of letters, sounds, and words. I am amazed each and every day by how quickly Grace learns and how well she reads!

What a perfect gift that was for Grace to begin her reading skills. It's not a surprise that Grace has mastered this Reading Readiness Kit...we'll have to look into what comes next because Grace would love to move ahead, I'm sure!

What a pure joy to hear about her R-E-A-D-I-N-G. I think that I have some early readers tucked away. I'll try to locate them and mail them up for Grace to enjoy.

Here's to a terrific beginning on the lifelong path of reading...one of life's greatest pleasures!
Keep Up the Amazing Work, Amazing Grace.
I Love You, Maddy
