Description: This deck includes 34 cards that help children learn to pronounce the alphabet in English (using only the American letter "z" pronunciation, not "zed.") The first card has a video that shows children how to play the first type of cards. The 5th card has a video that allows children to listen to the letters pronounced in groups of rhymes. There are seven groups: AHJK BCDEGPTVZ FLMNSX IY O QUW R The 27th card shows children how to do the next seven slides; from the 28th to the 34th cards there is either a farm or beach scene where the children drag the letters they hear into a basket. There is also a printout for the children to color in the letter groups sold separately in the store under "The Alphabet by Sound Groups American Version." The international version is intended for teaching children who are learning "zed" and for some who speak French because it refers to the pronunciation of some letters in that language. (I teach French speakers.) Learning the alphabet is super important for my ESL students because when all else fails in communication, I want them to be able to spell what they are trying to say. ;-) Thanks for visiting my store!
