On the shelves and showcases of bookstores, there is a huge selection of primers and alphabet books. In order to choose the best assistant in teaching your child to read, you need to understand how they differ and what are their main features.
Instructions
Step 1
Almost every ABC book lists the recommended age of the child for whom this book is suitable. If your kid is 4 years old, then it is too early for him to learn the ABC book for older preschoolers. If your child goes to school in a year, then it will no longer be so interesting for him to read an ABC book aimed at children from 4 to 5 years old.
Step 2
All primers have their own special order of submission of letters. In some, letters are studied according to the frequency of their use in the language, in others, a sequence is given that corresponds to the order in which children learn sounds. In the third versions, the letters are arranged according to the authors' own designs.
Step 3
For kids who have difficulty pronouncing some sounds (L, R, W, F), ABC books are recommended in which the corresponding letters are located at the end of the book. This allows you to avoid repeated incorrect pronunciation of sounds and makes it possible to start them only when the child learns to pronounce them correctly.
Step 4
Of course, don't forget about the decoration of the book. Naturally, it should be bright and colorful. The font needs to be large and easy to read, and the illustrations are logical and understandable. The first ABC book should captivate your child, stimulate him to read and be fun!
