Parents and teachers should prioritize phonics recognition, particularly consonants, for children aged 6-9 because it lays the foundation for reading proficiency. During these crucial years, children are transitioning from learning to read to reading to learn. Effective phonics instruction helps them decode words by understanding the sounds associated with the letters, particularly consonants that form bulk of words in the English language.

Strong consonant recognition allows children to manipulate sounds and spellings, fostering greater independence in reading and writing. As they master phonics, children develop phonemic awareness, which is essential for understanding language structure. This is especially vital as they encounter more complex texts in subjects like science and history, where comprehension is key.

Moreover, phonics skills enhance vocabulary acquisition, enabling students to recognize and sound out new words. This exposure enhances their confidence and encourages a love for reading, which is integral to academic success.

Additionally, consistent phonics practice aids those who may struggle with dyslexia or other reading challenges, ensuring they receive individualized support. Engaging parents in their child's phonics journey can create a supportive learning environment at home and strengthen school-home connections. Together, they can nurture proficient, enthusiastic readers ready to take on future academic challenges.
