Pre-K is a time of rapid growth and development. It is a year of preparation for kindergarten and for future success in school and in life. To achieve, children need to be imaginative, independent, and actively involved in their own learning.
This readiness curriculum uses a developmental approach that is based on the most relevant research about how young children learn best:
Children begin developing language skills from the moment they are born. This language and literacy program actively teaches syllables, names and sounds of letters, words linked to content, new words in spoken language, how to respond to simple questions, and how to have discussions and share ideas.
The program focuses on building rich Vocabulary so that children learn a word’s meaning and what a word represents so they begin to understand the network of concepts that goes with it. Children also learn the difference between drawing and writing, associate books with reading, 'read’ environmental print, and ultimately learn the many benefits of early reading and writing.
Children also learn to identify letter symbols, both capital and lowercase, by letter names. They learn how these “symbols” work together to form printed words and how printed words related to spoken language.
Language & Literacy Pre-K Teacher’s Guide
Unique lessons are memorable and provide real-life context, so children can easily master new concepts. Skills are taught explicitly and sequenced from the easiest to the most challenging to provide opportunities for differentiated instruction. 210 pages.
My Book Activity Book
Inviting fill-in-the-blank book helps children learn about books and practice beginning handwriting, as they personalize their own storybook with drawing and storytelling. 8-1/2" x 8-1/2". 20 pages.
A-B-C Touch & Flip Cards
Reinforce good letter formation habits, enable upper and lower case letter recognition, and matching letters to sounds. Two decks – one for capital and lowercase matching and one for tactile lessons and puzzle building elements. 27 picture cards provide an alphabetical animal puzzle on one side and a capital letter on the opposite. The capital letter is coarse to the touch (perfect for the tactile learner!) and contains a directional arrow for tracing the letter. 26 letter cards contain capital letters on one side and the matching lower case letter on the opposite side. “Flip” feature promotes self-checking. 53 tactile, double-sided 4” x 6-1/4” cards. Includes 16 page activity booklet.
