Product Description

The instruction in jumbo fun with the alphabet focuses on the four basic readiness skills that all students need to master before moving on to a formal reading program.

• Page count - 224
• Dimension - 11 x 0.5 x 8.5 in.

To become of a successful reader, students must know the names, shapes, and forms of all 26 letters of the alphabet. Jumbo fun with the alphabet helps students achieve this goal by introducing them to the letters of the alphabet using engaging, illustrated animals whose names start with the featured letter such, as ant, bear, cat, and so on. The animal becomes a common thread throughout the activities for that letter, facilitating both sight and sound recognition.

Realizing that words are made up of sounds and hearing those sounds in spoken language are important steps in reading readiness development. Hear it! and draw it! lessons provide this essential practice by asking students to recognize and identify beginning sounds through reproducible art and matching activities.

Students are given multiple opportunities to view the letters of the alphabet and to practice making them. The draw it!, write it!, and make it! activities engage students in visual discrimination practice while they practice drawing and following directions.
