I run a STEM Lab for 240 3-5 year old child who are 100% below the poverty line. We use a computer program for teaching literacy. (Our Literacy Program is horrible but all the other programs out there are just as bad or worse) I continually am frustrated at the lies we tell about phonetics and the sounds of letters. Sound out the letters. C and K are the same. X has a word end sound of KS. Z and C have a S sound that they both use. There has to be a logical way to teach sounds to pre-readers that doesn't fumble all over the place. P.S. If anyone is creating a new Literacy Program for Pre-Schoolers and Kindergarten students I would love to be a part of it. Have worked one on one with hundreds every week.
