We made these fun flashcards today and thought I'd share. No, I'm NOT a fan of flashcards and neither am I trying to replicate a classroom environment at home. However, the kids had so much fun making these and Bombie is getting to where she's soaking up large amounts of information. I'm thinking it's time to teach her to read. She knows the sounds letters make - thanks to Leapfrog's Phonics DVDs - but she knows only her uppercase letters. So, this is what we did!
We bought some plastic separators from the office store and stuck plastic letters on them. Then I punched holes in the side and tied them with ribbon. I thought about binding them together, but that was not such a great idea because this way, we can focus only on the ones they're having trouble with as well as break them up and make words later. So fun! And, because they made them, they love them!
Pretty soon, they'll be reading! Hey, look at us... we're homeschooling. :)
