Number Phonics: A Complete Learn-By-Numbers Reading Program for Easy One-On-One Tutoring of Children by Karen Louise Davidson, ISBN 9781885942234

Publisher Description:
This is a revolutionary phonics system for teaching children to read. It will also be effective in teaching reading to illiterate or semi-literate adults. The author is a reading expert who home-schooled her own seven children. She used every available phonics system, and found them all wanting. She realised that 30 per cent of children are left behind by traditional phonics systems. She found that children are quick to use number clues to identify the different sounds of each letter. By tagging the letters with a number, she prompts the student to recall the specific sound of this letter. And she applies this system to all the 84 major sounds in English. Who should use "Number Phonics"? Home-schoolers, parents who want to give their children a jump start, parents whose children are struggling, and classroom teachers and reading specialists.
