What the Letters Say: A Beginning Step in Sounding" is an educational game that was first published in 1955 by the Garrard Press. The game is designed to help children learn to sound out letters and words. It includes a game board, a set of letter tiles, and a set of instruction cards.


To play the game, children take turns spinning a spinner to determine which letter tile they should pick up. They then place the letter tile on the game board in front of them. If they can sound out the word that is formed by the letters on their board, they get to keep the tile. The first child to collect all of the letter tiles wins the game.


The game is based on the Dolch Sight Words list, which is a list of 220 common words that children should be able to recognize instantly. The game is a fun and educational way for children to learn to sound out letters and words.


The game is also notable for its use of the word "phonics". Phonics is a method of teaching reading that emphasizes the relationship between letters and sounds. Phonics is a widely used and effective method of teaching reading, and "What the Letters Say: A Beginning Step in Sounding" is one of the earliest games to use this method.
