Explain the main advantage of using children's names to teach letter recognition and phonics.
Children's names are their first "decoders" for alphabet letter names and sounds. When teachers use children's names to teach letter recognition, they personalize the instruction, which makes it more memorable. Children are keenly interested in their own names, and can use the letters and sounds of their own name to develop knowledge of the sound-symbol relationship, and also transfer this knowledge to other printed words.
