Letterland is a unique, phonics based approach to teaching, reading, writing and spelling for 3-8 year olds. Letterland provides a link between letter sounds and letter shapes. At Brassall Early Learning Centre we believe it is essential that our preschool children are given a solid foundation in phonics before moving to primary school. Letterland helps to build this foundation in a unique play based way. Your preschool child has free access to computers at Brassall Early Learning Centre. This well established and successful system will help teach your child • to listen and use spoken language • explore and experiment with language • sustain attentive listening and respond to what they have heard • extend their vocabulary and explore the meaning of sounds and new words • hear and say initial sounds and words • link sounds to letters, name sounds and letters of the alphabet • know that print carries meaning and is read from left to right
