  • Don't get me wrong, sight words have a time and place. But if we focus on teaching phonics FIRST, our little ones will have a much easier time learning sight words and why they're tricky. #shorts

      No need to see how you did it, I did the same with my daughter and she could read her name before the age of 2 and by 4 could count to 100, could read pretty much anything and was more than a year advanced compared to her classmates when she started school.

The person above me stated that they dont find this video impressive because they assume everyone learns how to read and write by the time that they are two years old, that is not true! I wanted to point that out, and give some of my relatives as an example and said that they cant even run properly sometimes. Its possible to learn writing at 4 years old. Its just not common.

    While Finnish language is one of the hardest languages to learn the benefit is if you learn to read you can read a book for kid without knowing what you are reading. In English there are many words you just need to know how they are pronounced.
    Car and Cat is a good example how the letter A in Car is sounded as Ä in Cät. When you say them out loud you realise the A is different in them.

      Thats true... honestly parents can help a lot with stuff like that, and it can be easier then they realize. I was learning to read and wright (and surpringly good at) at the age of 2, as well as speaking with proper grammar (mainly because improper grammar annoyed/annoys my mom) at the age of 1. I was homeschooling before I was even old enough to go to school. When I finally did go to school I was supposed to skip a grade, but instead the teachers just had to give me harder work and more of it then everyone else. All of that came from the ADHD as well as dyslexic kid who would but empty boxes on her head and run into walls continously.

Teach your kids how to speak and read, it saves them so much time and puts them at an advantage compared to others and gives them more time to learn other things. Also teach them another language, I knew 2 at 3, it helped so much in my education.

In my experience, I was one of maybe 15-20% kids my age, not a unicorn, and there were fewer kids who struggled with reading than those who could read out loud relatively confidently. Maybe it’s because my native language is less messed up in terms of spelling and pronunciation than English, and also my country inherited the Soviet education system.

      Phonics won't get you passed grade school without looking like an idiot. Sound out the following words: epitome, ally, wounded, culinary, armoire, hyperbole, Yosemite, vision, blood, island, scheme, honest, iron. If you pronounced them correctly then you sight read more than you know. Readers who are taught phonics alone and no sight reading often suffer from poor comprehension and it can take years for them to catch up with peers who are taught both. Eventually we graduate to sight reading or we get left in the dust.

    As a linguist I can say one thing:
    Phonics helps decode language, meaning it helps with spelling, which helps with reading. But in order to learn to read, an able reader must read regularly to the person

      Agree..I read to my babies..constantly..took toddlers to library..bought lots books.My first born had difficulty with reading.It was frustrating for us because books were a huge part of our life.We wanted him to love it too.We were military and moved alot..he never grew to love reading..He worked harder than most to get through college..I'm sure there was a reading disability not found.He tested quite high in other skills.Hes a very successful man..but the struggle was real.Be patient with little ones..not all kids learn the same or on same schedule.

      Yes, he is 100% just recognizing the shape of the words, because that is how reading works with the human brain. You see text, then draw it back to prior knowledge.
      Sounding out words doesn’t automatically equal understanding. Eventually the sound and look of a word will be connected to understanding and definitions. It’s the effort that counts, and if they spent the same time using a different method I’m sure the results would be similar. Seems like he’s feeding a script to me. 🤷🏼‍♂️

      I'm not a native speaker. Phonic just helps a bit because tbh English spelling is strange. It's inconsistent. In my native language, A is always gonna sound 'aaaaa' no matter where you put it or what alphabet you pair it with. Same with other alphabet. It's consistent. That's probably the reason there's no such competition as spelling bee in my language because it will be too easy. I learned reading the Arabic & it's pretty much the same too.
      Back when I was a kid I gotta listen a lot from TV shows and songs lyrics to get used to the English spelling. One thing I agree, u gotta start training young. Kids absorb like a sponge. Whenever I study another language right now I kinda struggle to master the reading system.

    Except you HAVE to memorize sight words in english, SIGHT itself is a word that is not pronounced in its own letter pronunciation. Words like beer/fear bear/fare all spelled differently despite being pronounced similarly /vice versa. Yes teach your kids to sound out words but this isn't how english works, you need both.

    my mom homeschooled me and my sisters instead of sending us to kindergarten, and we were all reading full sentences by like 3 or 4 lol. If you are a parent, teach your kids the sounds of letters separately, it really helps.

      I know a younger couple who have 2 kids. One is 4 and the other is 2. They both have so much potential but the mother does absolutely nothing to get the oldest ready for school. No clue how to read or write, can’t even use the bathroom. It’s very sad and it’s all about the parenting.
