Parent-led, child-active

You model.
They discover.

Profe Sori is the guiding voice in our materials. You provide the sound, the demonstration, and the human attention.

Uppercase → Lowercase → Cursive → Accents & correct spelling

This is the learning order. Keep printed words correctly spelled throughout; the parent supplies the model. Explicit stress, accent contrasts and spelling correction begin only in stage 4.

Break → Name → Do → Teach

  1. Break: choose the smallest useful piece. Show one large uppercase letter, one writing movement, or one group of objects.
  2. Name: help the child notice what matters. For reading, focus on the sound rather than reciting the letter name.
  3. Do: the child points, traces, air-writes, copies, moves objects or blends. The adult models the letter sound; the child may echo it.
  4. Teach: invite the child to show the idea to you, a toy or Profe Sori.

Two loops, responsive to the child

Learning loop

Break → Name → Do → Teach. Move from hearing and seeing to physical action and explanation. Return to a smaller piece whenever needed.

Support loop

Observe → Show thinking → Diagnose → Isolate → Scaffold → Child acts → Verify → Extend → Teach back. Use the child’s response to choose the next prompt.

A gentle correction ladder

  1. Pause and observe: “Muéstrame cómo pensaste.”
  2. Offer a small cue: “Escucha otra vez” or “Mira mi boca.”
  3. Isolate one part; offer two choices or model that part again.
  4. Try together, then let the child act without that help.
  5. Try one similar example and invite a teach-back. Stop or return later if the child is tired.

Correct one thing at a time. In stage 4, after uppercase, lowercase and cursive, work explicitly on letters, syllables, stress and accents. Adult printed models retain correct spelling and accents even when the child is practicing only one component.

A first S session

Aim for about 7–10 minutes, or stop earlier. You make ssssss; your child traces a large S, writes it in the air, finds it among shapes, and teaches the sound to a toy. Introduce O next and L after that; SOL becomes a reading task only when all three letters have been introduced.

Warm feedback, without performance pressure

Say what you noticed: “You followed each letter.” No scores, streaks, timers or mastery claims. Pointing and large movements are useful participation; pencil writing is not required to begin.
