Description
Less Stress & More Fun:
All Aboard will help your child learn to read by supporting the phonics that your child will be learning at school. By engaging with All Aboard, your child will be able to get the vital regular practice with decoding letter patterns and blending sounds that leads to accurate and fluent reading.
All Aboard makes that practice routine fun and free of stress for both of you, with short sessions full of games to exercise the different processes of reading.
The moment that a child is ready to start learning to read with All Aboard varies, but is generally somewhere around the age of 4. If you find you are too early, just wait a few months and try again!
The Three Key Pillars of Reading:
All Aboard will help your child in multiple ways. Your child will become:
1. Familiar with the sounds used in words (the “phonemes”) and the alphabet
2. Confident with blending sounds together to make words
3. Able to convert letter patterns into sounds
Those are the three pillars of reading.
All of this is done in a gaming environment, so that your child is actually asking to learn to do reading practice each day. That may sound surprising, but give it a go to see what we mean!
All of the All Aboard lessons are completely free for any child to access.
Structured For Success:
In this way, your child will be set up to succeed in each book reading session and you will see confidence building week by week. Without that careful scaffolding of your child’s success, reading practice can become very stressful for everyone.
Building that psychology of confidence is absolutely vital for a successful journey to strong reading, so we recommend that you reinforce it with constant praise of everything that your child gets right in each lesson too!
Your input in that way will make a huge difference. Teaching a child to read can be frustrating, but you want to do everything you can to avoid seeming frustrated or annoyed. Focus instead on how hard it is to learn to read! Imagine how you would feel learning to read Arabic text, for instance, and you will have a sense of what your child is dealing with.
The library will become available once your child has completed the first ten lessons and is familiar with enough letters and sounds for the first book.
If your child has already done a bit of reading practice, the beginning of All Aboard will seem fairly slow, but it is much better to build solid than to build fast. There is no great rush.
On the other hand, if you have an older child who has become very frustrated with reading and needs to catch up a bit, then our online “Easyread System” will be a better option. Search on Google for information on that.
