Our first four books teach Pre-K through First Grade lessons:
The Teaching Train, supports initial sound acquisition. It is followed by the second book, Danny Dolphin 1, in which your child learns sound blending using consonant-vowel-consonant words. In Danny Dolphin 2 these C-V-C words plus sight words are used to practice making simple sentences.The free, ABC Author to Be has two parts: the blank template and the finished child created books. The blank template provides a format in which your child can apply the lessons from the previous activities to create their own book. It can be submitted back to us for a chance to be chosen as the ABC Author to Be book of the month. Each of those books are subsequently provided as a free PDf. file download for other children to print out, read and enjoy.
