The Reading Rods® Alphabet & Phonemic Awareness set is a tactile, hands-on learning tool designed to help emerging readers develop essential phonics skills.
These color-coded letter blocks support key early literacy skills such as letter recognition, sound isolation, blending, syllables, rhyming, and building CVC words.
