Inside you'll find 55 magnetic foam letter tiles, a write-on/wipe-off magnetic board, and an 8-page teaching guide filled with learning-rich activities. A great way to make learning fun!
Add some hands-on phonics fun to your studies! Practice early reading skills with the vibrant yellow easy-grip letter tiles. Lowercase letter tiles show consonants in black and vowels in red to help recognize and learn word-building patterns. The included write-on/wipe-off magnetic board is perfectly sized for young hands (approximately 9.5” x 7”) with a writing line across the bottom. Using the top blank area, children can use magnets to first spell the word, then use a dry-erase marker (not included) to copy the word on the double-line (which has a dotted midline). Each kit includes 45–55 magnetic foam letter tiles, a magnetic dry-erase board, and an 8-page activity guide. The guide includes game and activity suggestions. All pieces are housed in a convenient carrying box for on-the-go learning!
