Fun with Phonics
A plant in its early stages of life needs a strong network of roots to provide a foundation upon which it can grow and thrive. If we consider the educational development of children, a strong foundation of reading needs to be developed so that they can prosper at literacy and language development. Taking this into account, the CubsREAD program presents Fun with Phonics!
In this multi-week course, your Kindergartener, first or second grader will review the basic sounds for each letter of the alphabet – allowing them to sound out unfamiliar words. Craft activities will also be implemented to help enrich the learning experience.
The curriculum is developed and administered by current UCA students under the facilitation of faculty and graduate-level students from the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders. Let our bears work with your cubs toward developing a strong literacy root system that will allow them to bloom!
