Bring it on
Yang: I am unbeatable at this game. I'll hit you with a WAH WAH WAH card before you can say "cat", and immediately follow that up with a HA! HA! WILD CARD. You'll soon be clenching your claws and begging for mercy. Mwahahahaha!
Yin: I try to remember that I'm not just here to have a good time and learn to read, I'm also here to show Yang who's boss.
What makes phonics so effective?
English consists of about 44 sounds, but has more than 170 different ways to represent these sounds in writing. Phonics is the method that helps make kids aware of the patterns between these sound-letter correspondences, and it’s proven to be an extremely effective way to learn to read.
