sharpen his or her listening skills while trying to repeat the spelling of a word
in the proper sequence. Your child will develop problem-solving strategies as
he or she devises a way to remember the order in which the letters were
presented and in the process learn to spell the words.
ACTIVITY INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Slide the activity selector to the ninth activity. You
will hear "Let's go fishing!" followed by a short tune,
the activity name and the instruction "Remember the
order and press the buttons." A letter sequence will
be heard that spells out a word and then blanks will
appear on the screen to represent each of the spoken
letters. The timer will begin as a "Tick Tock" sound
effect is heard.
2. Press the letter buttons to fill in the letters in the
same order as you heard them. The fisherman should
then be pressed to stop the timer.
3. A correct answer will elicit a positive response as well
as a reiteration of the correct answer for added
reinforcement.
4. An incorrect answer will elicit an encouraging
response. Your child will be given another chance as
the learning toy repeats the question. After a third
incorrect attempt, the unit will reveal the correct
answer, and a new question will be asked.
