Both the alphabet chart that pulls out and the chart given at the end of the booklet with directional arrows for drawing each letter can be used for teaching how to print the letters. The children might begin by learning to print their own names. Then, different children's names can be used to introduce most of the letters. The remaining letters can be introduced through the alphabet song or other common techniques. The rhyming and sound matching pages introduce important sound activities that should be extending and repeated.
Rhymes are generally easy for kindrgarten children, both for recognition and for production.
Songs and poems can be used to emphasize rhyming, as can common rhyming games. Sound matching is usually more difficult and requires careful sequencing and repeated practice. If the children have difficulty with the booklet activities, use real objects to introduce the concept. Place in a box a ball, book, bag, and a bottle, mixed together with a map, marble, mitten, and mug. Ask a child to begin by selecting an object from the box and saying its name.
