Young children are fascinated with verse and learn them effortlessly. In one section of the workbook, the author also introduces shape poems to children. The alphabet poems and shape poems are followed by questions. This combination of poems and questions provides a meaningful experience for young children as they are also learning about sound, building vocabulary, learning to be more creative, developing critical thinking skills and enhancing fluency. The activities in this workbook allow children to practice and reinforce basic skills. This workbook is also an effective tool for older children for whom English is a second language. This workbook can become your child’s companion at the park, laundromat, home, on the bus, train, car or even on vacation. Let’s consciously promote a healthy learning experience for our children and help them become lifelong READERS. https://podopshost.com/yayadiamond
