Rock 'N Learn Sight Words DVD

We were given the chance to try out Rock 'N Learn Sight Word DVD.  This is a pretty cool thing since Jacob is now at the age that he is learning how to sound out words, and well it was perfect timing for him! 

I loved the layout of the video, it was definitely something that kept Jacob's attention, however there were some parts that went way too fast and didn't have enough review.  I was also not a fan of the teenage cartoon characters that were doing the songs.  For a preschoolers DVD I thought the characters were too old and it was just not appropriate for this setting.  Think Bratz dolls for preschoolers learning sight words... (that is the only way I can think to explain it!)

I am not sure if we will continue to use this in the future, I do love the teaching aspect of it, so I might have to ignore it, or just use it to make flash cards or something to incorporate it into our schooling.
