About the First Words Flashcards (Ages 3-5)
Here are our top reasons to buy the First Words Flashcards (Ages 3-5):
- 49 cards in one printed set, covering vocabulary, phonics and high frequency words
- 31 word and picture cards put a colourful picture next to the word it names
- 11 high frequency word cards for the words that come up again and again in early reading
- 7 rhyming and nonsense word activity cards to train your child's ear for sounds
- Ideas for games and guidance for parents, set at EYFS level for Pre-School, Reception and Year 1
Lay out a few cards on the floor and your Pre-School or Reception child reads pictures and words together, as a game rather than a lesson.
These flashcards give your child the first words and sounds that early reading is built on, in short bursts at home. They sit at the level of the early years foundation stage, so the words match what your child meets at nursery or school. A Year 2 child with gaps in the common words can use them too.
First Words Flashcards is a printed set of 49 cards in three groups. On 31 of them, a colourful picture sits beside its word, so your child names the picture and then reads the word. Another 11 hold high frequency words for sight reading, and 7 use rhyming and nonsense words to tune the ear.
Collins adds ideas for games to play with the cards, plus short notes to guide you. Pick out a handful, play a round and stop when your child has had enough. Cards that cause a pause go back in the pile for another turn.
