ABC Fun & 1-2-3An easy-to-use, literature-rich preschool curriculum to make learning the ABC fun!
A practical preschool curriculum for teaching the alphabet and numeracy to kindergarten children.
Gentle, informal and flexible learning for little ones...
“A mother’s first duty to her children is to secure for them a quiet and growing time, a full six years of passive receptive life, the waking part of it for the most part spent out in the fresh air.” (Charlotte Mason)
In researching a mini-thesis on early childhood reading for an honours degree in Linguistics and English language, I learned that children need ‘bottom-up’ (phonetic) skills as well as ‘top-down’ (language and contextual) information to learn to read well.
ABC Fun & 1-2-3 combines both of the above in an adult- & child-friendly weekly program that introduces children to the letters and sounds of the alphabet.
Children discover learning ...
“There is reason to believe that the thrill the youngster finds in experimenting with the natural things about him at home is soon stifled by the distractions and regimentation of the typical school program.”
What ABC Fun will do for you
1. ABC Fun & 1-2-3 is stress-free With this program your children will learn about the alphabet and
numbers
in a relaxed and fun manner, using whole books and real life experience and by doing activities that are appropriate for preschool children.
2. Children love stories and stories are good for kids "Children are made readers on the laps of their parents." (Emilie Buchwald) If your children have role models (like you), who read and enjoy books and share this joy with them, they will be eager to learn about the letters that make up the printed text in stories. "Kids need to see their parents reading, and they need to be read to themselves as early as possible. Young school-aged children benefit from responsive reading of stories with their parents. Such literacy-nurturing activities have been shown repeatedly to foster optimal language development." (Mel Levine, A Mind at a Time, p 148)
Research has shown that too much formal learning at a young age can be detrimental to children’s development, but using the using the correct methods you can stimulate interest, awaken a delight for learning and lay a foundation for when children are developmentally ready to start formal studies. “The idea that parents should hurry reading, spelling, writing, or math ahead of children’s normal development is not supported by a single replicable research study in the world or by any clinical experience in history. All history, research and common sense points in the opposite direction! We repeat: Any who push the three R’s early deny the readiness the Creator built in – reasonably mature vision, hearing, taste, touch, smell, reason, brain growth, coordination – as clearly documented in our books Better Late Than Early and School Can Wait.” ABC Fun & 1-2-3 was written with the above advice in mind. It will ignite a love for literature and a love for learning in your children, without the pressure typical of other educational materials. Reviews of quality stories (not twaddle) that you can read together with your children are included.
