Synopsis

My First Reading Activity Book includes games and activities to strengthen pre-reading skills, e.g. shape and sound discrimination, left-to-right eye movement, whole word recognition and familiarity with initial sounds.

With delightful full-colour illustrations, My First Reading Activity Book is a must for pre-school children who are starting to take an interest in reading.

Chiefly consisting of activities to practise pre-reading and observation skills, such as matching exercises and spot the difference games, this book will introduce children to the Letterland characters in a fun and interesting way. They will be learning without even realising it!

About this title

From the Back Cover:

'Letterland' is successfully used to teach reading and writing in thousands of schools throughout the UK. The 'Letterland At Home' programme uses a fun approach to help your child develop and practise at home the skills they will need in school.

The Activity Books cover the key skills of Reading, Handwriting and Spelling in three colour-coded Stages. Because all children develop at different rates, the programme has been designed to enable you to choose the level most suited to your child. Detailed parent's notes within each book give helpful advice on how to guide your child through the activities.

· Stage 1 introduces young children to the popular 'Letterland' characters. Annie Apple and her friends provide children with their first experience of letter shapes and letter sounds.
· Stage 2 is ideal for children who are familiar with 'Letterland' and are beginning to recognise, read and write whole words. As your child becomes confident with letter shapes and sounds, more complex letter patterns are introduced.
· Stage 3 builds on these skills and develops your child's confidence in reading, writing and spelling. By the end of this Stage, your child will be ready to read and write short phrases and sentences.

'Above all, learning to read and write with 'Letterland' will be fun!

Synopsis:

Stimulating activities help children learn the basic skills required for reading. With the help of the "Letterland" characters children should progress from pre-reading activities to recognizing individual letters and reading simple words. A "pull-out" reading game is included.
