Alphabet Letters (PART 1, 2, 3)

Learning the alphabet is fun and easy with this set of workbooks. Teachers will be stunned at the reading, spelling, and comprehension skills (capitalization, simple sentence formation, ending punctuation, practice of good penmanship) built into their students when they use these simple lessons. Each lesson is set up in the same format, introducing letters one at a time.

 

Students will be able to read, spell, and comprehend hundreds of words upon completion of all four workbooks. Each lesson also includes a fun illustration for students to color to help them remember the letter sound being featured. These workbooks are unique because they focus on the alphabet letters and their sounds, removing the tendency to guess.

 

WORD STUDY (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

Students will learn to read, spell, and understand short-vowel and long-vowel words, basic consonants, consonant blends, consonant digraphs / trigraphs, and two syllable words. All First Grade Workbooks (1-5) follow the same format consisting of 5 exercises per lesson.

 

The first exercise – “Read, Discuss, Spell” – presents a list of words to learn:

  • The “Read” has the students read the words out loud to the teacher. Students discover that reading simply involves recognizing the letters of a word and knowing the sounds they make, then pronouncing these sounds from left to right.
  • The “Discuss” components call for the teacher to chat with students about word meanings (no formal definitions needed) and make students aware that many English words have several meanings (bat, lap). This activity of discussing words ensures that students will develop the habit of thinking about meaning while they read.
  • The “Spelling” part consists of a spelling test given at the end of every Exercise 1.

The other four exercises reinforce concepts taught in Exercise 1 and involve

  • pairing words that rhyme,
  • putting words from a list in alphabetical order,
  • learning to use a dictionary
  • dividing words into syllables, and
  • practicing handwriting

These workbooks provide for small group (centers and reading groups), one-on-one instruction, interaction with the entire class, and really help students start out as confident, authentic readers. Teachers using this curriculum have been pleased by the dramatic improvement their students have shown when tested by reading programs such as Fountas and Pinnell, Scholastic Reading Inventory (SRI), and computer programs including iStation and Read 180.
