• Word families 1 will teach your child 34 of the most important word families. Each word family has a word list that uses these sounds. There is also a deck of 50 consonant sounds (singletons, diagraphs and consonant clusters) that she can use to make new words. Use the cards to make words that your child is familiar with, words he is just beginning to read, and totally silly words!
• Word families (or sound families) will help your child decode a group of sounds, without having to interpret these each time. Word families form the sound roots of words. For example, once your child has learnt the sound combination -ight, he can read ‘light’ and even longer words like ‘lighten’.
