Very good quality and great for learning

The media could not be loaded. I think these are amazing and so good for learning! My great nephew is 3 years old and thus will help and encourage fun learning. The manual is also easy to follow for me and I never knew this way of learning when my son was younger. The blocks fit together with ease and are fun.

Amazing spelling resource

This product is brilliant for supporting children with spelling. It makes it fun, interactive and multi sensory. I especially recommend for struggling spellers. Only negative is that the letters fade off with repeated use quite easily on some blocks.

An imaginative teaching resource

This is more of a teaching resource than something for a child to ‘play’ with, or work through on their own. It is in some ways equivalent to a visual aid, but – more than that – it is a practical hands-on tool on which a child can see how words are formed, and themselves form words.Their own name is likely to come first, followed by some of the simple words that are illustrated on the light blue and pink cubes – dog, cat, ant, etc.After they get going, and for a keen learner to do some voluntary ‘revision’ practice, they can work on their own, but most tasks will need a teacher to at least introduce a concept. That means individual teaching or, at most, small group work. Good for home learning – not at all good if there are more than three children using a single box of reading rods at the same time.The enclosed leaflet should definitely be read right through by the prospective teacher. Besides explaining how the various colour codes are to be interpreted (e.g. pink pictures represent words beginning with a vowel; blue ones a consonant), it offers many good ideas for demonstrating how words work.Some ideas in the leaflet come as a surprise – or did to me. The concept of rhymes is introduced (cat, mat, bat, etc.), as is counting the number of syllables in a single word (up to three in the examples – volcano, violin, …).Through use of these rods, perhaps a new generation of poets will emerge (and rhymed verse with a strict metre will come back into fashion)!Well, perhaps not, but at least the children’s reading is likely to develop alongside almost without specifically paying attention to that.The cubes are nicely made and presented in a stout box that – with reasonable care – should well outlast any one child’s period of need for exercises at this level.‘Yes’ to 3+ for building their own name from its elements – but mainly 5-6 plus for seriously beginning to read.

Comes with QR codes to print off additional games

At first glance this just looks educational rods which are set in certain colours for learning. Such as the silent (E) being being white, vowels being red and so on.This set is a great way to introduce the more complex wording and practising of Constance files, word families and Affixes so a child starts to learn and use and understand suffixes.It’s very round nine, if a child learns by a hands-on approach, they are more able to retain information and learn quicker.This also includes a booklet with invert colour is QR codes to be able to download games to use alongside this at set such as Bingo as you can see in the photo. There are lots of different activities and games to choose from with the QR code to download and print off.This app can also be used in addition to assets within this range which can be bought separately.Make a note a perfect set for a home setting or an education setting.We’ve had fun playing the games, both learning, and my eight-year-old son has enjoyed this set whilst boosting his knowledge.Therefore, I’d highly recommend

Excellent learning aid

As a parent to a six-year-old and four-year-old, these reading rods are proving very useful for helping not only reading, but phonics, and how words and sounds are formed. There are 70 colour coded blocks which can be easily attached to each other to form words. The activity booklet that comes with the blocks is very helpful. My six-year-old is grasping this very well as he is in year one and has already learnt a lot about diagraphs and really excels in English. My four-year-old will be starting foundation in September so this will aid his learning tremendously. He is already grasping phonics, can sound out the letters of the alphabet using phonics and to learn the diagraphs will be an extra benefit to him before he starts school, removing some of the anxiety surrounding starting something new. His big brother has been very helpful in this. This is such a good learning tool for foundation and year one children, we use it almost daily, and for this reason I’d say great value for money and five stars!

Defective item

Very good for learning but letters started disappearing after 2 days of using it. Sadly had to return it. Actually I wanted to replace it but there is no option to contact seller.
