Rock 'N Learn: Sight Words DVD Review and Giveaway! - CLOSED!

I always work with my children and the daycare children on learning shapes, colors, numbers, letters, etc. I think it is very important to give our little ones a head start before we send them off to Kindergarten! I have found a wonderful series of learning DVD's and CD's to help children learn math, reading, science, social studies, languages, etc. called Rock 'N Learn! I received the Sight Words DVD to review and as soon as I popped it in the kids stopped what they were doing and started listening and learning to Rock 'N Learn! This DVD makes it fun for them to learn. Bella is already pretty good with her sight words from Kindergarten. (She will soon be in the first grade!) I don't want Sam to miss out on any learning advantages that I can give him, so I am so happy that he likes this DVD! Sight words are the most commonly used words in the English language! This DVD helps kids learn to read over 60 sight words automatically!


Rock N Learn: Sight Words Description:

Sight words are the most frequently used words in the English language, and this DVD helps students read them automatically. As a supplement to phonics-based strategies, Rock 'N Learn Sight Words boosts reading and spelling skills. Children learn over 60 sight words through engaging characters, entertaining songs, and fun practice. Words are presented in context to help build reading comprehension. Includes all pre-primer Dolch words, the top 20 from Fry's, and more. A bonus section helps kids with word shapes and spelling skills.

Pre-k & up. Approx. 50 minutes


More about Rock 'N Learn:

Rock 'N Learn began as an idea that would help children learn by putting educational material to music with a current sound -- the kind of music that kids enjoy and find motivating. Now with over 50 products, we have sold millions of audio/book and video programs to teachers and parents throughout the United States, Canada, and other countries.

Rock 'N Learn programs help students learn math, phonics, reading, early childhood, social studies, Spanish, test-taking strategies, writing, and science. Our DVDs incorporate music with exciting, colorful imagery.

Headquartered in Conroe, Texas, just north of Houston, Rock 'N Learn is owned and operated by its founders, Richard and Brad Caudle.

Working as a school psychologist in 1986, Richard saw the need for multi-sensory learning programs using the styles of music that kids love. He consulted his younger brother Brad, an accomplished musician, to record their first program to help kids learn multiplication facts. Strong sales of this recording in the school specialty and book markets led to other programs and the start of a successful company.

Richard and Brad never varied from their number one goal of providing children with programs that would make learning easier and fun. Brad's wife Melissa, a former second-grade teacher, writes material and coordinates educational research for Rock 'N Learn. Richard's wife, Kathie, manages our sales and marketing team.

Rock 'N Learn programs have received numerous awards such as Dr. Toy, Parents' Choice, iParenting, National Parenting Publications, Learning Magazine Teachers' Choice, Early Childhood News, National Parenting Center, and Parent's Guide to Children's Media. Our programs lead in the areas of quality and customer satisfaction based on surveys of school supply stores.

As documented in case studies by numerous school districts, Rock 'N Learn programs work. The overwhelmingly positive response from parents, teachers, and kids generates tremendous word-of-mouth support. By consulting with educators and featuring talented vocalists and performers, Rock 'N Learn will continue to develop quality audio and video programs that hold interest and help kids learn.
