Description
Looking for a way to teach letters and sounds? This activity is often a precursor to a phonics program. Each page (sometimes 2 pages) teaches a letter of the alphabet with a handwriting area to trace the letter (or number) in upper and lower case, coloring illustrations that start with the sound, and saying words that start with the sound. At the bottom of every page is the alphabet with the letter circled. Since the book does not teach in alphabetical order, this is especially helpful. The sequence is unique: S, T, L, B, M, G, H, A, P, C, N, O, D, R, F, E, U, K, V, J, I, Q, W, X, Y, Z. As you progress through the book, short words using the letters learned appear and you begin to identify upper and lower case of a variety of letters, not just the new one. Pages are black and white with simple, bold-line illustrations. ~Sara
Category Description for Step-By-Step Reading
Looking for something streamlined and simple for teaching basic phonics at home? There are only 2 parts: one book for learning letters and sounds, and one for expanding that knowledge to read words and sentences. You could add something like Bob Books or Scholastic Readers to expand the reading practice.
