Get the Blending Sounds Starter Kit!
A play-based way to teach your child to blend sounds into words (no letters required).
Does your childĀ see "cat" and say "spaghetti"?Ā
Ā
You'veĀ heard "sound it out", but what if your child can't seem to put those sounds together into a word? For lots of students,Ā blending is where reading really starts. And that can happen before the letters ever need to show up.
This free starter kit gives you the exact games and activities I use with my private tutoring clients-the ones with dyslexia-to build blending skills through play.
Inside you'll get:Ā
- A step-by-step intro to oral blending- how to teach your child to blend 2 sounds, then 3, using nothing but your voice and a few toys.
- Hands-on games and activities - no worksheets, no letter drills, just play that builds a really critical skill.
- The "why" behind the method- a quick explainer on how this connects to Orton-Gillingham and structured literacy, so you understand why it works, not just what to do.
This isn't a workaround or a "fun extra." It's grounded in the same structured literacy approach I use as a private dyslexia tutor-made simple enough to do on the living room floor.
