An Interactive Way of Learning How to Read
Our integrated phonics approach teaches your child to form word sounds by blending phonemes (i.e. the smallest unit of sound) and graphemes (i.e. a way of writing phonemes). As your child learns to better understand the text he/she reads and writes, he/she will become better able to express thoughts, ideas and emotions when communicating with others.
One of the key highlights of MindChamps Reading is our Read-Along mobile app, which features a comprehensive collection of e-books and interactive activities utilising our unique “Say and Sing” phonics approach.
Written by Brian Caswell, Dean of Research & Programme Development at MindChamps, each story in our e-book collection comes with a catchy song and a set of activities that help to strengthen your child’s phonological and phonemic awareness.
Research has shown that music helps children in vocabulary acquisition, sound and pitch discrimination, emotional and creative responses as well as memory retention. MindChamps Reading is the sole programme that uses specially crafted e-books with built-in musical elements to deepen your child’s love for reading.
