how old should a child be...?

How old do you reckon a child should be when they stop referring to their ABC's as 'Ah,Buh,Curly Cuh,Duh,Eh,Fuh etc?...My fiancee's 10 year old son still does this and it seems a little on the infantile side (she does cosset him though,and has spoilt him his entire life)

    I bet they laugh at him in school. My 4 year old grandson was taught to say A B C from day 1. This child could be taking the 11 plus in a years time, so it's time she stopped him from doing it.

    Understanding the foundational examining skills will allow your child to focus on knowledge the subject they're reading rather than battle with understanding what eventually ultimately causing a far more gratifying and enjoyable studying knowledge and that is in what that program Children Learning Reading from here https://tr.im/nR56U is based.

    Children Learning Reading use techniques to simply help your child study and improve his examining, awareness, and punctuation ability in the first college years.

    Although the Children Learning Reading plan is based around your youngster understanding the small appears that make up each term there are a few phrases in the English language that just can't be learnt in this manner (rhythm for example). To be able to support one to show your son or daughter these exceptional words an manual is presented to the most typical words that need to be learned by sight.

    That benefit may be particularly helpful in the event that you and your son or daughter are fighting a certain word. You know that if the word is within the manual then it's a thing that can not be learnt using the Children Learning Reading method.

    it makes sense to read them how they sound. many schools teach kids to do that.

    im sure she knows it can be said abc and not phonitically. there is a move to make all children learn reading like that and many schools andteachers already use the sound of the letter rather than the actual letter like

    H is said as HAH rather AITCH

    sounds like you just dislike the kid....
