E.g. Traffic Lights: Some children have trouble hearing and identifying the middle sounds in words. It is critical for their progress that they learn to do this.
Find a picture and say the word, e.g. "dog". Your child
may put down a green disc when he or
she can tell you the first sound, a red
disc when he or she can identify the last sound
and a yellow or orange
disc when he or she can identify the middle sound
- green for go, red
for stop. Later letters can be put down to match the sounds.
