Reading tablet (English)

About the game

Seeing an English word is one thing, but putting it together yourself from letters is quite another! Choose a card, look for the right letters and check whether you’ve managed to spell the word correctly.

The ‘Reading Board’ turns learning English words into a hands-on game: the child reads the word on the card, finds the letter tiles and places them in the slots on the board.

Word by word, the child moves from simply looking at the cards to putting together English words independently.

In the set

• a base board with cut-outs for letters
• 50 double-sided cards — 100 English words: animals, food, objects and more
• 47 tiles with English letters (almost every letter appears twice)
• 10 emotion tiles
• a storage box

How to play

1. Insert the card into the tablet holder.
2. The child reads the word and selects the letters.
3. Insert the letters into the slots — and read the word together.

Where to start

Start with short, three-letter words: cat, dog, sun. Longer words are the next step.

Game variations

• read → put together → repeat;
