Why Play?
"Decoding" or the ability to apply letter-sound relationships to sound out words, is CRITICAL to adding new words to a reader's mental dictionary of words recognized instantly. It also gives readers the power to attack new words they may not have seen many times before. Those with poor decoding or sound-letter relationships skills may struggle with reading. These readers benefit from explicit, multi-sensory, and systematic phonics instruction.
