The Curriculum Guide has 26 total lessons, one for each lowercase letter of the alphabet with optional schedules for one letter per week or two letters per week. Basically, each lesson will take about 20 minutes, but you can adjust to the speed of your student. Open and go lessons are easy to follow and give instructions from start to finish. Songs are sung to familiar tunes and instructions are given for how to present the letter of the day with the corresponding workbook, flashcards, writing practice, and coloring page (sold separately). An enrichment page for every lesson includes options for crafts, games, activities, snack ideas, and a book suggestion list. Some activities require the use of simple household products, and a supply list is found inside the front of the Guide. 84 pgs, pb.
*Teaching Tip: Beginning with uppercase or lowercase is a personal preference – you can start with either one and find success. That being said, uppercase letters are easier to recognize and write than lowercase letters, so the publisher recommends starting there for kids on the younger side.
