Lalilo & Teach Your Monster to Read

Mastering the fundamentals of reading is critical for a child to become an avid reader. Fundamentals, meaning letters names, sounds, and segmenting a word. If you have a second, or third grader this may seem crazy to review letter sounds and chunks of letters, however if a student doesn't master the correct sounds or have misconceptions it can lead to major road blocks in the future. Instead of Compass or Lexia, I have found two alternatives that focus on the mastery of the fundamentals and building upon them rather than reviewing and jumping to a new skill. Both are free to use on a computer. There is a one time log in access code for Lalilo: YATFSX. Lalilo is sound based program meaning students must rely on what they hear and apply it. Teach Your Monster to Read is more of a game where the student must teach their "monster" what letters, sounds, and segmentation's are. This program is very game driven. Both are great additions to your nightly reading practice.
