Child1st Publications Introduces New Bilingual Sight Word Cards for Special Needs
Lincolnton, NC, November 27, 2009 --(PR.com)-- The new sight word cards follow a similar format to Child1st's bestselling SnapWords™ cards. The front of each card includes an image embedded into the word, enabling visual and other right brain learners, as well as those labeled with dyslexia, autism, Asperger's and ADD to engage with the word. Each back includes the plain word without the image, the word used in a sentence to help with correct usage, and lists a recommended hand motion to meet kinesthetic learners where they're at.
"There is a growing number of people in bilingual schools, as well as native English speakers learning Spanish for the first time who all need teaching products that work," said Sarah Major, CEO of Child1st Publications. "The cards really step in and meet these needs. The images bridge the gap for visual learners by giving them something to hold on to, while the English and Spanish sentences help students know how to correctly use the words in a sentence."
