Inhaltsangabe

This book is designed for parents and educators as a tool to help children learn the alphabet and develop literacy skills for children ages 3 to 8. The movement exercises are both fun and educational. The exercises utilize whole child development theory related to the work of Piaget: Children learn best when they are active. In all four books in The Literacy on the Move Series, they learn new words as they dance them. Each book has a companion coloring/activity book to reinforce the learning experience.

Letters can Do More than make WORDS; given a chance, they might even start a DANCE

Dance? Yes! Acro with A; Bunny Bop with B; Cakewalk with C; Disco with D; Eagle Rock with E; Flamenco with F; Geisha with G; Hula with H; Irish Step with I; Kangaroo Clown Hop with K; Line Dance with L; Mariposa Mambo with M; Nene Waddle with N; Octopus Shuffle with O; Polka Dot Polka with P; Quick Glider Step and Slider with Q; La Rumba Rosa with R; Silly Skip and Waggle with S; Train Stomp with T; Unicorn Run Don't Hide with U; Viper Wriggle with V; Xantus's Hummingbird Flight with X; Yak Trek with Y; and Zebra Zumba with Z!

This book is for children from 3-8.

These word dances offer:

• A fun and effortless way to learn the alphabet and how words are formed by letters
• An immediate, kinesthetic understanding of letters and words
• Physical coordination and cognitive development
• Literacy Enhancement: Words have meaning when the words and movement merge.
• Introduction to images/metaphors
• Aesthetic appreciation of literature and motivation to read

The book and series are inspired by the research developed by developmental biologist, Charles Piaget who said, "The young child attributes life to activity and this activity facilitates his thinking ability and learning. The child then begins to be aware that movement is the essence of things around him, and he discovers himself through movement...he begins to think as he moves. The child then is developing not only through the psychomotor domain, but also through the affective and cognitive domain.
