Why Letters Are Characters:

A child’s knowledge of letter sounds by age six is the most important indicator of future reading ability. Letters are Characters gets kids ready to read in a fun and engaging way ensuring that they get the right start. It also empowers parents though awareness and understanding of the science of reading in the brain.

More than 2/3 of American children are not proficient readers by 4th grade according to the National Assessment of Educational Progress.  Together we can change this trajectory.

Please sign-up for Letters are Characters... you'll get letter dough, crayons and information that will ensure your child reads to their highest potential.
