When it comes to practicing spelling words with my kindergartener it was hard to keep her attention. These little blocks did the trick! They helped keep her engaged and made spelling fun. Searching for the letters to connect to make her spelling words turned studying into a game.

Son bloques de letras de colores 🧩 que se pueden unir para formar palabras y oraciones. Es como un juego de construcción para crear historias con letras. ✨Imagina que tienes los bloques "b", "a" y "t". Puedes juntarlos para formar la palabra "murciélago" 🦇. ¡Es como magia! ✨ TAMBIEN LO PUEDES USAR PARA APRENDER IDIOMAS ... HACIENDO PALABRAS EN INGLES O ALEMAN ...OJO " 🐱🎀.✨Lo mejor de Reading Rods es que te ayudan a aprender los sonidos de las letras y cómo se combinan para formar palabras. Por ejemplo, suprima el sonido "b" /b/, bloquee el sonido "s" /s/. ¡Es como un juego de detectives de idiomas! 🔎🔠La barra de lectura también viene en una variedad de colores y formas para representar otros elementos, como la puntuación y las sílabas. ¡Podrás crear historias emotivas y llenas de suspenso, CON IMAGENES INCLUIDAS! ️Si quieres ayudar a tu hijo a aprender a leer de una forma divertida y práctica, ES UNA OPCIÓN IMPRESIONANTE ️📚

I use these blocks as another way to practice spelling. These are great and work well and students like them.

This is more of a teaching resource than something for a child to ‘play’ with, or work through on their own. It is in some ways equivalent to a visual aid, but – more than that – it is a practical hands-on tool on which a child can see how words are formed, and themselves form words.Their own name is likely to come first, followed by some of the simple words that are illustrated on the light blue and pink cubes – dog, cat, ant, etc.After they get going, and for a keen learner to do some voluntary ‘revision’ practice, they can work on their own, but most tasks will need a teacher to at least introduce a concept. That means individual teaching or, at most, small group work. Good for home learning – not at all good if there are more than three children using a single box of reading rods at the same time.The enclosed leaflet should definitely be read right through by the prospective teacher. Besides explaining how the various colour codes are to be interpreted (e.g. pink pictures represent words beginning with a vowel; blue ones a consonant), it offers many good ideas for demonstrating how words work.Some ideas in the leaflet come as a surprise – or did to me. The concept of rhymes is introduced (cat, mat, bat, etc.), as is counting the number of syllables in a single word (up to three in the examples – volcano, violin, …).Through use of these rods, perhaps a new generation of poets will emerge (and rhymed verse with a strict metre will come back into fashion)!Well, perhaps not, but at least the children’s reading is likely to develop alongside almost without specifically paying attention to that.The cubes are nicely made and presented in a stout box that – with reasonable care – should well outlast any one child’s period of need for exercises at this level.‘Yes’ to 3+ for building their own name from its elements – but mainly 5-6 plus for seriously beginning to read.

My kids love lining up their ABC’s!
