logo (3)etp

 

I was recently selected to review a set of School Zone ABC Flash Cards by Educational Toys Planet.  These flash cards were perfect for my preschooler and had both pictures and lower case and upper case letters and corresponding words on them.  There was also a parent resource card for tips on how to use them effectively.  The cards are high quality and very detailed with engaging pictures.  Needless to say my preschooler loved them and so did I.

School Zone, Start To Read! Early Reading Program, Level 2 Readers Review & Give-Away!!! {Give-Away Ended}

I was recently sent the School Zone, Start To Read! Early Reading Program, Level 2 to review.  This great kit includes 5 beginning reader books, 1 comprehension book, 1 read-along & songs CD and 1 parent guide.  This is a 3 step reading program for ages 5-7.  The first step of the program is to have your child listen to the stories on the CD and follow along in the books.  Audio cues signal when to turn the pages.  The second step is to encourage your child to read the stories aloud.  Your child’s excitement grows with their progress, independence and success.  The third step is to help your child review the stories with the companion comprehension pages.

My 4-year-old is shy of the recommended age but he still wanted to try this.  The stories are really fun and easy for children to follow along.  School Zone makes reading programs in a variety of age levels.  Mommy Ramblings thinks this Start To Read Program would make a great gift for the young children on your holiday list, so we are adding it to our 2011 Holiday Gift Guide.

Is your child ready for the next step in reading? Move up to Level 2 in the Start to Read! Early Reading Program. This collection continues to build the foundation your preschooler or first grader needs to experience reading success in school. This set contains:

 

5 Beginning Readers present

1 Parent Guide offers tips and ideas for following
a 3-step approach: listen, read and review

 

The stories in the readers are fun, easy to follow, and colorfully illustrated. Repetition, rhyming words, and short sentences introduce and reinforce essential language and listening skills. Each story has one track on the CD dedicated to uninterrupted reading and another narrated track, with turn-the-page signals to help your child follow along in the book. The CD also has 10, fun-to-memorize songs that make bedtime, bathtime, or anytime more playful.

 

A comprehension workbook provides additional activities and extra practice of newly learned skills, while testing your child’s understanding of each story. A Parent Guide offers tips and ideas for you to enhance and support his or her reading progress. Originally developed by educator and School Zone co-founder Dr. James Hoffman, the updated sequence-based series, which consists of storybooks and complementary materials across three progressive reading levels, is designed to build a solid literary foundation for any child while teaching kids that reading is fun. This Level 2 collection continues the development of reading skills. Follow this program, and you and your child will celebrate reading success every day!
