dd in reception happily reads all the 45 key words, and quite a few besides. she was only started on word books after october half term. but she loves reading, and has just picked it up.
currently she is being given books that have lots of small print that the parent is supposed to read, and a speech bubble containg a sentaence, eg, 'we can see it'. she manages to read a substantial number of the small print words. from sight, or simply from what she thinks should come next. eg, she will happily say the word 'could' becaseu she knows that is what should be next, but will struggle with blending the word 'under'
i really want her tomove onto something with cvc words, or just simpler words, so that she is actually blending the sounds together. and not just making up the story. but the teacher thinks we should just play word games at home, and stick with these words.
i have thought about trying her on ds's stage 6 books.
any suggestions please o n how to help her blend sounds
