Brimming with fun, adaptable activities and games, this supplemental language and reading curriculum complements any prereading program. Preschool, kindergarten, and first-grade teachers can use these engaging activities in any classroom-general, bliningual, inclusive, or special education. All children benefit, because the curriculum accommodates individualized learning and teaching styles. The developmental sequence follows a school year calendar, building on simple listening games and gradually moving on to more advanced sound manipulation exercises like rhyming, alliteration, and segmentation. Assessment activities help educators evaluate language and listening skills, and the assessment forms can be photocopied for frequent use with large groups of children. Prereading educators will welcome this playful curricular supplement as an effective way to improve listening skills and foster essential preliteracy skills.
