Phonics Friendly Families

Early interactions with children broaden the base of literacy behaviors in young readers and writers. The first teacher in a child's life is the family. In Phonics Friendly Families, Smith extends the learning environment of the school to the home through activities built for the family. The experiences build upon rich children's literature and are supportive of the integration of reading and writing. By involving the family in explorations that support the school experience, children are able to make critical connections with the social and academic arena of life-long learning. A Companion to the Dr. Jac's Phonics Friendly Books, Phonics Friendly Families has activities to support the lessons found in the Carroll book. A must for early childhood literacy.Kelley R.
