Holiday Play Ideas for Reading Practice with the 'Sound Slam Mums'
About this episode
This is a great episode if you are looking for ways to keep up some reading and writing practise at home while school is on break. Primary school teacher, mother and founder of the Sound Slam card game Anna O'Connor shares her ideas and games. Anna talk about phonemic awareness, what that is and its importance in how children learn to read and write.
Melissa and Anna also discuss the impact of COVID-19 on learning, the role of parents in supporting their children's education, and the creation of Sound Slam—a fun and engaging card game designed to boost phonological skills at home.
