My Florida Alphabet is not just another alphabet. Join Big Al, the tugboat, as he chugs through Florida, from A to Z. And sing along, performing the gestures for each letter. The CD with the catchy, easily learned song, performed by elementary school children, is included. The song uses the sound of each letter, not the name of it. Teachers and parents will enjoy watching children learn their letter sounds as they see, hear, sing, and pantomime gestures for each letter. A written explanation of each gesture is included. The variety of subjects used for the letters can be a launching pad for studies in science and social studies. And there is a reproducible page of miniature finger cards for each letter to be used as flash cards or to create simple words through sound combinations (at, up, is, bag, etc.). Research continues to prove that adding movement, music, and rhythm facilitates learning. The authors have used this method in their classrooms with fast and amazing results.
