Question 2
Why must we do the flash card in a fast speed?
Two reason why we flash so fast:
- Learning speed of a child is too fast,
so if we will to do it slowly, we will not
be able to gain the child’s attention.
- When we flash the card fast, we are stimulating
the child’s right brain, as they do not
have the chance to analyse the cards. They
will try to recall the images in their mind;
they are actually using their right brain.

I have laid off the program for some
time now (Reason: Either busy or sick). How

You do not need to start all over again from

on the old words.

Is it possible for my child to learn to read
