In order to make our products more affordable to more teachers, we are now offering components of our kits for individual purchase. This way teachers can add products as funds become available.
After receiving positive feedback at the NAEYC Conference this past fall, we learned a few things:
- Our concept was well received
- Our product was aesthetically pleasing and considered “innovative” in that it’s quite comprehensive
- We offered only two products—the Family Kit and the Teacher Kit
- Our prices were out of the price range of most teachers, so they needed to get school approval to use school funds
- Several questions were common:
- “Can we buy just your guessing game cards?”
- “Do you sell just the map of Scholarville with reinforcement stickers?”
- “Would you sell us your character cards?”
- “I’m tired of the phonics program we are using…do you sell just your phonics component?”
So, in an attempt to share our products with everyone, the individual parts of our whole kit are available to all of our customers.
Many parents and teachers alike are in search of a quality “phonics only” program to enhance their children’s reading readiness skills and they have found this kit component very useful. We have been approached by advocates of the Down Syndrome Association, ESL teachers, preschool teachers, kindergarten teachers, and non-profit agencies, all expressing their admiration in our phonics component and how there is nothing else out there like it!
The town of Scholarville and all of its community members are “one of a kind” watercolored line drawings that have been created by an amazing artist and educator. Scholarville is unique, multi-cultural, engaging, motivating to children, and a perfect springboard into the world of letter and sounds! Their action is evident and their affiliated motions help ALL learners grasp the letter/sound connection!
The Guessing Game is a favorite of all students! It is perfect for vocabulary development and beginning sound reinforcement.
Each piece is important in and of itself, and when combined as a whole kit you have an exemplary kindergarten readiness program!
