The best way to fast-track early reading development is to learn the basic letter sounds. Fitzroy Sounds is a quick and painless way to do this. Children simply listen and sing along to the CD. Children love singing along with each letter song. All letters come with their own thick, ‘indestructible’ letter cards. Pictures help teach letter sound. Each letter has a letter writing card that teaches children not only how to write the letter, but also its correct stroke order. Fitzroy Sounds comes with two audio CDs that give both ESOL and native English speaker pronunciation of the 26 letter sounds. The ESOL is more technically 'correct' and better for those who have not grown up listening to English. The native speaker version is a quicker and more practical way for those who already speak English to learn the letter sounds.
