Review Quotes:
"Overall, this book provides easily useable examples of projects and songs that are extremely well suited to the subject. Its best home would be on the reference shelf of teachers and librarians responsible for story hours." --Colorado Association of Libraries
"What a tremendous resource for all teachers of beginning grades! Phonics are key with the guidelines of No Child Left Behind so prevalent, and teachers will find they have clear, concise aides with this book. The table of contents reveals sections set up by alphabetic symbols and sequences, consonants, and vowels. A table of figures offers hands-on activities that are well-explained and easy-to-do, and in synergy with the 'Art Project List, ' which is a further guide to the actual crafts sections. The units are filled with a variety of entries such as making 'a virtual deep sea dive' with verse, to never forgetting 'short a's' through rhyme, and 'a flat bat craft project.' Educators, both in the classroom and the library, will enjoy offering unique and fun ways to build their students' phonemic awareness. Highly Recommended." --Library Media Connection
