Reading skills development kit
First Claim
1. A reading skills development kit comprising:
- (a) a background;
(b) at least one permanent first phoneme set fixedly disposed on said background, being at least one phoneme and forming a portion of a word;
(c) a different series of elements providing interchangeable second phoneme sets associated with each of said at least one first phoneme sets, each second phoneme set being at least one phoneme and forming an intelligible word with said at least one first phoneme set;
(d) means on said background for selectively exposing said second phoneme sets, one at a time, adjacent their associated at least one first phoneme set to create different intelligible words that include said at least one first phoneme set;
(e) said at least one first phoneme set having the same sound in each of said words so formed; and
(f) coding means associated with said first and second phoneme sets to identify that series of interchangeable second phoneme sets singularly associated with said at least one permanent first phoneme set to indicate erroneous association of a particular interchangeable second phoneme set with a particular at least one permanent first phoneme set.

Abstract
A background has positioned thereon at least one permanent first phoneme set. Each of the first phoneme sets has associated therewith a deck of cards, each card in the deck bearing an interchangeable second phoneme set which, when combined with the associated first phoneme set creates a proper word. The cards are held adjacent the first phoneme sets by pockets on the background.
By changing the card in the pocket adjacent the first phoneme set different words are presented to the student in which the first phoneme set retains the same sound.
In one embodiment the permanent first phoneme sets form the terminal portion of a word and in another embodiment form the initial portion of a word.
Each of the pockets and their associated deck of cards may be of the same color but different from every other pocket and card deck so that if the student places a card in a pocket not having the same color, the student will know that the word formed is not a proper word.
