Reading problem? Choosing the right answer. Problem? Child avoids failure and avoids reading. Problem? Getting the wrong correct answer? Children want to be correct. They want to give the correct answers. We are not as good at choosing the right answer when there are 2 to 3 right answers. Problem Alphabet and words have too many correct meanings. Unfair, difficult task. How can you be right or correct when there are so many right answers? The child is likely to lose. Children are highly motivated to avoid losing. Criticism from a parent or sibling is devastating. Too many right answers Causes a confusion Which answer is more correct? Children don't want to hear- " Thats not the way to say it" Child now avoids reading to avoid failures. Children want to be "right" just as you do? Teaching alphabet and words first allows too many chances to be wrong. After too many failures the child avoids the task. Gives excuses may act hyperactive may change the subject -------------------------- SOLUTION TEACH PHRASES FIRST Teach words and alphabet after thousands of sucesses with phrases. PHRASES ARE EASY TO LEARN WHY ? Phrases have fewer meanings. They have few incorrect meanings. They try to define their exact meanings. ------------------------ WE ARE GOOD AT MIMICKING THE SOUND Children desperately want to be right and earn approval. Their faces glow when they are correct. Immediate non-critical feedback of the recordings reassures the child. They know they have done the right thing. Being right thousands of times builds confidence to try new tasks.
