I am lost.
I am abroad and trying to make sense of how to teach the DC to read in English but seem to be going round in circles.
We have this Letterland book which I thought was good (got DD1 to recognise all the letters, plus she enjoyed the stories and chartacters.
But now I see there's from Jolly Phonics and wonder if I have made a mistake teaching the alphabet sounds (buh for bouncing ben, tuh for talking tess, fuh for fireman fred etc) because we now need to do the phonics phonemes which are not the same :( .
So, do I jump into Jolly Phonics or songbirds
We are abroad so cost is an important factor, as everything comes from amazon and obviously delivery costs bump up the price.
Any help gratefully received. Thx
