Alphabet Answers
(80-Page How-to Resource Book)
Everything to Know (Now . . .) about Teaching and Learning Alphabets, Creative Ideas for Effective Language Activities and Games
Experience with any alphabet serves as a vital foundation for language teaching and learning. It enables children, adult new readers, learners of a second or foreign language, and everyone that uses written language to understand and do oral spelling. It also helps them to write from dictation, to look up and alphabetize items, and to prepare to read and spell phonetically by choosing and arranging letters that represent sounds.
Alphabet Answers begins at the beginning. It suggests innovative activities and games requiring little or no preparation, designed to teach the forms, names, and order of the letters in an alphabetic writing system. At many proficiency levels, these 26 ideas A to Z will add variety, motivation, and energy to the classroom, tutoring situation, learning group, and/or individual study. Both "academic" and mostly-for-fun sections (like "Alphabet Bingo," "People-Letters," "Paired Alphabet-Grid Games," "Alphabet-Letter Card Decks," "Tell & Spell Chains," "Letter-Name Words," and many more) include reproducible classroom-ready materials and website referrals.ISBN 978-1-934637-19-7;
