Two Fluent Readers and One on the Way!
For the past couple of years, I’ve had the pleasure of watching Wendy’s girls blossom into happy confident readers and now her young son is having fun with phonemic awareness.
I asked Wendy if she would write a testimonial for me to use on Amazon, it was so heartfelt I just had to share with everyone.
“Silent Elephant “e” is a great reading program!!! We started it when our oldest was a kindergartner struggling with identifying letter sounds. Part 1, Phonemic Awareness, helped her isolate sounds and easily learn them. She is now reading 3rd grade chapter books!
We homeschool our 3 children and have used this program for all of them. It now engages our 4-year-old with the color association of letter sounds. He is having so much fun he doesn’t realize he is learning. Our 2nd grader who has never struggled enjoys the creative phonetic rules. She especially likes the cupcake story with the colorful poster that explains the different sound variations for the suffix -ed:
I wanted a cupcake. (-ed makes /id)
I called the bakery. (-ed makes /d/)
The baker baked me a cupcake. (-ed makes /t/)
We started with the first three parts of the program. Upon completion of Part 3, we sequentially continue purchasing the next parts.
I highly recommend this reading program for all learners and teachers. I do not have an education degree, yet I easily understand the instructions and have been very successful with the results.
We now have two fluent readers with a third on his way. Mrs. Jones has been available for questions every step of the way and has sent encouraging notes to the kids. Please consider this program if you have a struggling reader who thinks outside the box or if you have a regular reader who has hit a plateau.”
I’ve enjoyed conversations on Zoom with the girls about their Silent Elephant “e” work and books they are reading, and though they have very different personalities they both have thoughtful questions and insight. They are proud readers.
This is what Silent Elephant “e” is ALL about: proud readers.
