Brooklyn is back in phonics

Yesterday was Brooklyn's first day back in phonics. Phonics is a program that Apple Creek offers to their students to get them to learn to read. Last time she was in phonics she concentrated on the upper case letters and now she is getting ready to read. They concentrate on two words a session, they do all kinds of games with those letters and pick out pictures that start with those letters. She started yesterday with A and B. Eventually they will start putting words together. She was very excited and had a lot of fun. They also work on the sounding of each letter as well. Unfortunately, when they got to her she had the hiccups so she couldn't finish that portion of the class. She will have homework each night which is good because this way she will really grasp the understanding of the letters of the alphabet and get her ready for kindergarten.
