I don’t have a kid and I’m not a teacher.. but your videos are very engaging, and I appreciate what you are doing. The way I see it, moving away from phonics takes away a child’s ability to teach themselves new words, creating more work for everyone. And without phonics, words may as well be heiroglyphics.. but worse because spelled-out words don’t even form pictures that suggest the thing they’re supposed to portray. English spelling rules are awful, but if anything, it’s the spelling rules themselves that need to be reformed (something like in Spanish or Swahili), not the teaching method-which is still powerful.

I’m loving this series! We are working on sight words, and your videos are extremely helpful!! Thank you so much!

A Wicked Witch put a spell on the letter 'w' making the 'w' silent when 'wh' is followed by 'o'...whom, whose, whole etc.

Can you do she and he! Thank you😅

I'll add it to my list! : ) But as a quick explanation, you can tell your little ones that the e in she and he are special because they're long vowels and say their name. So they would blend /sh/ + /ē/ and /h/ + /ē/. Does that make sense?

Thank you. I just thought I’d confuse her because I’ve told her that when the e is at the end it’s silent.

Yes. Excellent explanation. Thank you. Their explanation was brilliant. Also watchyou explain could would should to a child. I think I have to change how I explain that one to my 1st grade grandson. I was only using the (ou) sound, including the (l) was not a part of what I was going, I only told him (l) was silent. Thank you.
