      Hi Minnie


      I just withdraw my K1 girl from I Can Read. She started off with I Can Read at their earlier stages (TCS and PRP). I find the programmes ok until she reaches the I Can Read Stage 1 now. The workbooks i find are difficult to teach which some other parents i know (who also send their kids to ICR) begged to differ. You may want to ask to see the workbooks at ICanRead Stage and see for yourself...
      Cant comment much on LW coz no experience personally.. πŸ™‚

            Bijin, my son was attending GUG’s Early Reading programme and then switched to Literacy In Action which has speech and drama also. I think both are very good because he picked up reading very quickly. He really enjoys going to the classes too. Sorry no experience with Leap Frog but maybe just try out the classes for yourself and see how your child likes them!

                        Pardon me, just curious. What's all these excitement about phonics? We didn't go thru phonics, both my kids didn't and we speak just as well as the next person. So, what's with all these phonics centres sprouting all over?


                        :?
