Phonics is a method of teaching children to read by linking sounds (phonemes) and the symbols that represent them (graphemes or groups of letters).  Ramsey, MK (2014)

This is one of the most important times for children's learning! They'll be absorbing ideas and information like sponges, so it's a great time to start your reading journey!

Keep phonics sessions short and focused. Try to stop before your student gets bored! Ten minutes is often enough.

It focuses on letter-sound matches to allow students to divide written words into their component sounds, before combining them again to read the entire word. This process is known as segmentation and merge. Blevins, W. (2012)

With practice, increase the speed with which students can see a word, segment the sounds, and then combine these sounds to read the word quickly. This makes learning to read using the phonetic method the most effective way for most children to learn not only to read, but also to write. Leach, LM (2010)

Sing songs and say rhymes together. May your student clap when she hears a rhyming word.

Teachers help children develop the listening skills they will need to become successful readers in the future. Children will use songs, nursery rhymes, and games to discover many sounds and get used to hearing and repeating them. Foes, K. y Sloan, M. (2016)

Make the student read as quickly and easily as possible so that they are free to read whatever they want. It's meant to be fun, and no one wants reading to become a chore. Hughes, JM (2011)

In English, there are about 44 sounds or phonemes. Since only 26 letters are used in the language, and many sounds have more than one possible spelling, it is helpful for students to learn the relationships between letters and sounds in a direct and explicit way.
Walsh, R. (2009)

In preschool or daycare, even before they begin to learn the names and sounds of letters, children begin to develop their listening skills to tune in to the different sounds in words.
Carbo, M. (2009)
