Modern phonics programs are not academically valid. Focus is now placed on pronunciation of words through phonic symbols and blending. Small children are now being forced to understand theory. There is no group work except chanting the alphabet.
Our Holistics Phonics is far above all modern phonics programs as it appeals to students listening, speaking, chanting, dancing, reciting, clapping and singing. They are developing their rhythm memory of sentences.
In the Holistics Phonics program, every new word is supported by a sentence to be chanted over and over with the words developed through many sentences. Small children do not have to work out how words are pronounced. They just hear the rest of the class chanting.
It will only take a day or two for new words to be recognized by students and used in rhythmic sentences. Having small children work out the word through phonic symbols is cruel, inhumane and unnecessary. Small children are being forced to work alone.
We only deal with language through sentences specially designed for rhythm. As the sentences and words become more complex, the importance of rhythm drops but the basic sentence pattern has already become part of rhythm memory of the children. They will never forget.
Our program inspires immediate acceptance by teachers in schools. Many say they want to get away from phonic symbols and go back to developing the elegance and simplicity of rhythmic sentences.
Phonics symbols forces students to work alone. Group work is the only suitable strategy for small children. Chanting of patterns is loved by children.
We start with enough words to set up basic sentences upon which we hang other more complex words and structures when the time comes, Many young children memorize the patterns with exponential speed.
