What is the purpose of the Phonics Wizard Alphabet and Phonetic Picture Cards?
In a set, you receive 26 upper-case letters, 26 lower-case letters and the 26 beautiful photographs and pictures that are in the “a for apple” book and are essentially the “words” of the song.The cards create fun, hands-on opportunities to play matching games such as matching upper-case and lower-case letters, matching letters to their phonetic picture cards, and matching rhyming pictures. The Memory Game can also be played. For example, ten picture cards and their ten matching lower-case letter cards can be placed face down. Each person takes a turn trying to find a matching pair. The cards are also wonderful for practicing blending letters. For example, “m” + “a” = ma. Then, a third card can be added for word building practice. For example, “m” + “a” + “t” = mat. You can play with the cards to show your child how words can be changed by changing the first letter, or the middle letter, or the ending letter.The cards are also useful for bringing the activities in the “a for apple” book
