5.0 out of 5 stars Look, Write and Rememer: Letter Formation Pages, December 17, 2002

This review is from: Look, Write & Remember Letter Formation Practice Pages: 52 Reproducible, Hands-On Lessons That Really Help All Children Visualize, Write, and Learn Each Letter of the Alphabet (Paperback)

This book has helped my entire first grade classroom to improve their printing skills. The easier letters (composed of vertical and horizontal lines)are grouped together and presented first followed by the more challenging letters (circular and diagonal lines). What a great concept!

This book allows my students to be successful "early on" which boosts their self-esteem and increases their willingness to print. Thanks so much.

This book with reproducable letter pages for your classroom is helping my Pre-K children begin with a better foundation for school next year than my previous letter pages had. But while the way in which the letters are introduced, they are grouped by pencil stroke, which, while better than introducing in alphabetical order, means that the lower-case and capitla letters aren't introduced together. I suggest using the order suggested by the "Between the Lions" educational consultant: m s t p f n a o d k l u b g r i z c h w y qu x e (lower case before upper case.) Whatever you do, do not use the "Obvious Letters" CD; it is educationally unsound.

This review is from: Look, Write & Remember Letter Formation Practice Pages: 52 Reproducible, Hands-On Lessons That Really Help All Children Visualize, Write, and Learn Each Letter of the Alphabet (Paperback)

I purchased this book to help with letter practice and recognition. Most of the letters had great words associated with them, like "s" is for snake and "f" is for flag, other however were not so great, "e" is a comb and the word association amoungst these letters did not help at all.

After the students learn the letters, there is a word practice section and I was surprised to see that many of the words were names of people, Owen, Quinn, Peter, Paul, (this is in the capital letters sections.) The lower case word practice however was right on target.
