Pete can't sound letters and his
teacher says he has to. If you

he can't sound, so what am I to
do? Hes just past 6 and should
be reading" she says.
Take Pete to the best eye and
ear specialist you can reach and
have his vision and hearing tested
Most children whose hearing and
eyesight are normal learn to
sound letters and symbols before
they are seven years old. Not all.
Most. There are odd ones here
and there who are delayed in this
phase of reading but who, when
their functions are in good health,
develop later.
If the specialist gives directions
for helping the child, be sure to
follow them out to the last letter.
Don't do the exercises for time
or two, say you haven't the time
for it, and stop. All worthwhile
teaching requires time, unhurried
attention and much repetition.
For the child who is slow about
sounding letters try making a
large, well-formed letter S on a
card. Tell him that it is curved
like a snake and makes the same
sound: S-s-s-S.
Make a big round o. Sound it.
Show him how round his mouth
is as he says it, using a mirror.
Let him sound each in turn sew
eral times, no more than three.

For weeks I've tried to find the
