alisoncooks Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 My daughter and I are loving Singapore. I mean, just absolutely loving it. The layout is perfect for her. So I couldn't help but think: is there a phonics program with this sort of layout??? (We're really struggling to find a phonics program that fits us.) With Singapore we: start with hands-on manipulatives to intro the concept move on to visual examples in the textbook, discuss them do some fun, kid-friendly activity pages with a variety of activities, some writing, some coloring, but never a whole lot (she loved matching # bonds for Mr. Eight/Mr. Nine/Mr. Ten!) Finish with a game to reinforce (or sometimes we do this later in the day or the next day for review)... See what I mean? We hit ONE concept multiple ways in the lesson, some kinesthetic, some visual, etc. Anyone know of a phonics program that is similar? For example, starting with hands-on (letter tiles, white board), moving on to (I don't know) maybe practice reading, then a corresponding phonics workbook page, and finishing with a game? Doesn't that sound great? (I guess AAR would be close, but we just didn't click with it... :() Any other suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
