This book will support your literacy programme by providing a range of creative and meaningful alphabet activities across a range of learning areas. The ability to recognise and r apidly decode the letters of the alphabet is at the core of developing literacy. Most teachers start their literacy programmes by building their confidence in learning or reinforcing their knowledge about the shapes, sounds and sequence of the alphabet – the scaffold from which reading starts. Although there is no easy way to learn the letters of the alphabet except by drill and practice, Let’s Learn Letters makes this task lots of fun for children and provides teachers with ready-made templates and ideas. Written by a practising Year 1 teacher with a particular interest in developing literacy skills, Let’s Learn Letters takes each letter of the alphabet and sets out a sequence of handson activities which will support children with different learning styles to absorb the look and sound of each letter. Each letter comes with five supporting pages:• a cross curricular overview which shows how activities which relate to the letter can be integrated into a range of learning areas;• an animal template with an original poem;• a creative activity which supports fine motor skills development like cutting, pasting, folding, colouring;• a recipe;• a technology challenge.Whether teachers use these activities separately throughout the week, or in a weekly developmental session, children will enjoy learning about the alphabet in context and in a practical and meaningful way.  [ISBN: 9781869683924; 140 Pages][Author: Rachel Goodchild, Stephen Goodchild; Suitability: Lower primary] Show more
