“Great stimulating learning resource for my newly turned 4 year old who looks forward to her next lesson everytime and loves the alaphabet punch out card rewards. Songs are very catchy and reiterate letter name and sounds. Easy to follow 15-20 minute lessons for parents no matter how if you have a busy/hectic schedule.”
“What the students enjoy most about the Learning Dynamics Reading System is the interactions provided. The lesson manual has great stories, songs and chants. Students play extra-curricular games that tie directly into each lesson plan. They each get to take home a practice writing and coloring page with a song to sing about the progress for each day. I enjoy their motivation and enthusiasm. And of course, the immediate progress!”
“The Learning Dynamics system is easy to implement, but my children (ages 5 and 7) find it to be juvenile and slow-moving. They want to do more letters per day and think the songs are annoying. If I had started this while they were younger, it may have been better, but my struggling first grader and preschooler do not like it the way it is written. That said, however, we did Lesson 6 today with blends, and not only were they able to do the two-letter blends, but they were reading all different words that used combinations of the letters in lessons 1-5. Going forward, we will adapt it to meet our needs by leaving out the songs and moving a bit faster.”
“Very unique and effective approach to reading. My son already knows all of his letter sounds so we are working on the blending of letters and he’s tackling that like a champ. I love the little books and flash cards but the workbook could be a little more sturdy. I feel that it’s a little flimsy for children. I’ve been making copies of it and store the papers in a folder so that I can take them out individually when we’re working on specific letters. Thank you!!”
“We are 8 lessons into the system and my kindergartener is able to read the first 5 books. I am so impressed, he has struggled with a speech delay which delayed his reading and ability to understand the phonics taught in school. He’s gaining confidence and is really excited to do the lessons. Thankful to have found something that works and he’s excited to do!”
“I love the systematic but simplistic way this is set up. I am using it as a resource teacher for some kindergarten students that need help blending. I am just getting started, but I like the progress and the engagement of my students!”
“My 4 year old loves this program. He enjoys the songs and is always excited to see which "friend" he gets to keep at the end of the lesson. He often times asks to do more than one lesson in a day because he enjoys it so much! He's also so proud of his ability to read the first few books already. Love this system!”
“My 3 year old son absolutely loves this amazing learning tool. From the awesome catchy songs that come with the cd all the way to the colorful easy to read books! He is always so intrigued and entertained!”
