One of the things I enjoy the most about teaching or tutoring is the use of words and their correlations to pictures. You can break a word up in many different ways. Some things I do to emphasize sounds are underlining letters or drawing smiley faces in double o's. When children have pictures that are friendly or memorable, they are more likely to memorize words and sounds. Children are the most rewarding students. They display their appreciation in many diverse and silly ways. So, if a child has trouble with certain words, break it up, repeat, repeat, and repeat! :)
