All Aboard! London: A Travel Primer (Lucy Darling)

Product Information

On the other hand, if you have an older child who has become very frustrated with reading and needs to catch up a bit, then our online “Easyread System” will be a better option. Search on Google for information on that. To greet customers, staff and other volunteers in a pleasant manner and to ensure that enquiries are met in a satisfactory and helpful way

Your input in that way will make a huge difference. Teaching a child to read can be frustrating, but you want to do everything you can to avoid seeming frustrated or annoyed. Focus instead on how hard it is to learn to read! Imagine how you would feel learning to read Arabic text, for instance, and you will have a sense of what your child is dealing with. If your child has already done a bit of reading practice, the beginning of All Aboard will seem fairly basic, because we start with just a few letters. But it is much better to build solid than to build fast. There is no great rush. You should find your child is actually asking to learn to do reading practice each day. That may sound surprising, but give it a go to see what we mean! Our volunteers give different amounts of time, from a few hours per month to several days per week. We offer flexibility and aim to build a worthwhile volunteering programme in line with your skills and around the time commitment you can give. Building that psychology of confidence is absolutely vital for a successful journey to strong reading, so we recommend that you reinforce it with constant praise of everything that your child gets right in each lesson too!Each book is released when your child has become familiar with the letters and sounds of the words used in that book. In this way, your child will be set up to succeed in each book reading session and you will see confidence building week by week. Without that careful scaffolding of your child’s success, reading practice can become very stressful for everyone.

The library will become available once your child has completed the first ten lessons and is familiar with enough letters and sounds for the first book. To understand and promote Gift Aid whenever possible including asking customers and donors directly whether this is applicable to them All Aboard is an app for children learning to read that is based on our fifteen years of research into the neurology of the learn to read process. Everything on the app is built on that foundation. We also have a library of books you can access on subscription, if you choose to. That is how we fund our development of All Aboard. There is no advertising on the app.The library will become available once your child has completed the first few lessons and is familiar with enough letters and sounds for the first book. You will find that these skills start to flow naturally as your child walks the through the short daily sessions. They will hardly know they are in a learn to read environment, because it all just seems like a set of games. But those games are working on the three pillars all the time.
