: Phonics Rhymes and Crafts Grades K-1

by Linda Armstrong

From the reviews

Help children with the sounds of letters (phonemic awareness) with this useful book.  It also helps them

 recognize and differentiate letter symbols. 

The lessons are easy-to-implement and correlated to national standards. Included in the book are original, instructional, reproducible black line masters! Crafts are age-appropriate and inexpensive, created with materials most teachers have on hand. Craft patterns are included, as well as photos of the finished product. The crafts are included not just for their fun value, but also because they help children get a kinetic feel for letter shapes--something that can be very useful for dyslexic learners. For example, one craft suggests that children cut out large letters and then place a sheet of paper over the cut-out and make a rubbing.

Also included are playground activities using letter chants, dramatic play suggestions, ideas for related creative art projects, and bibliographies of additional useful resources.

The lessons offered are great ways to engage children in learning.

This new resource offers hands-on help with teaching phonics and phonemic awareness. These easy-to-follow lessons on letter and sound recognition will help educators build the foundation for an effective reading program in the classroom and library.
