Parents and teachers should care about the Phonics Skills Extra Challenge Alphabet for ages 6-7 because foundational literacy skills are crucial for a child's academic success. At this age, children are often transitioning from learning to read to reading to learn. A strong grasp of phonics enables them to decode words, improve reading fluency, and build comprehension skills. Phonics teaches children the relationship between letters and sounds, making it easier for them to tackle unfamiliar words independently.

The Extra Challenge program offers targeted activities that cater to advanced learners, preventing boredom and promoting engagement. Providing these challenges helps nurture students’ skills at a critical point in their development, fostering a love for reading and boosting their confidence. By focusing on phonics, children develop not only their reading skills but also their writing and spelling abilities, enhancing overall literacy.

Moreover, early intervention through phonics instruction can significantly mitigate future literacy difficulties. Investing time and resources in phonics for this age group can set the stage for lifelong academic success, encourages independent learning, and allows children to fully participate in their education. In essence, prioritizing phonics education is an investment in children's futures.
