Hi my dd1 is in Year R. She is my first child so I do feel I am winging most things most of the time. We have worked alot on her letters and their sounds and she is fine with these, she can pick out letters and can associate words with a letter ie C is for cat or R is for russia etc.
She was upset yesterday as her friends have all be given reading books at school and she hasn't. I spoke to her teacher today and it is because although she knows the sounds she is struggling with blending them together to make words.
I dont really know what to do to help her so was going to go to waterstones to see if there are any books that I can get to help her with this. We do read to her 5 nights a week and get her involved with the stories (ie she can read books such as the gruffalo from memory by looking at the pictures but cant pick out the words).
Any advice or suggestions would be really helpful thank you.
