Learning to read is one of the most important skills a child learns. However, many children struggle with reading. Phonics programs help encourage early readers struggling with developing their reading skills by teaching them how to match sounds with symbols.
A child’s confidence plays a big role in both their willingness and motivation to continue practicing their reading skills. It’s easy for children to get discouraged when reading doesn’t come naturally to them, but with phonics programs, children can boost their confidence by starting with the basic connection between letters and sounds to approach reading with more foundational support. When faced with unfamiliar words, children with a strong understanding of phonetic principles are able to sound out the word with more confidence. This can help them feel more comfortable with reading in general as well as encourage moe excitement for learning this important skill.
Children with learning disabilities are more likely to struggle with reading than many of their peers, which is why enrolling them in individualized phonics programs is such a valuable tool for success. A tailored approach to your child’s phonetic education means your child doesn’t have to worry about falling behind in a large classroom full of other kids. Every child has their own struggles when it comes to reading and learns this skill better through different techniques at different rates.
