Very Useful with LEP students,
By A Customer
This review is from: Hands-On Alphabet Activities for Young Children: A Whole Language Plus Phonics Approach to Reading (Spiral-bound)
I teach LEP kindergarten and I use this book constantly. There are only three lessons I do not like the mini-books for and use other resources. The vocabulary is basic enough for kids just learning English, and the art projects are great hands-on activities that the kids love.

Hands-On Alphabet Activities is Awesome,
By A Customer
This review is from: Hands-On Alphabet Activities for Young Children: A Whole Language Plus Phonics Approach to Reading (Spiral-bound)
I am a kindergarten teacher and I use this book everyday in my classroom. It was a real life saver for my first year teaching kindergarten. I was looking through so many resources but I found everything I needed in this book. I recommend this book to anyone looking for a consistent way to teach the letters of the alphabet.

A lot of repetition,
This review is from: Hands-On Alphabet Activities for Young Children: A Whole Language Plus Phonics Approach to Reading (Paperback)
This book looks impressive at over 500 pages, but unfortunately much of the page count is taken up with repetitive information. Each letter has an art activity to go with a poem that focuses on an object beginning with the letter. There is a reproducible half page book with objects beginning with the letter followed by full page sized pictures of the same object which you are to make into a "big book" to read with a group. The activities for each letter are identical:
* read and act out poem * identify letter on a card * name object held up that start with the letter * complete art project (mostly cutting and pasting with some painting and stamping) * read big book for letter to child * the child reads a little book of the same text. Each step is described in detail for each letter although the format is exactly the same, which makes the book unnecessarily long. The little books are the best part of this curriculum, with repetitive text suitable for young readers and plenty of words that start with the letter being studied. The drawings seem a little crude, but they are friendly.
