My First Book of UPPERCASE LETTERS
-
US$7.95
C$8.95
-
Unlike conventional alphabet books, My First Book of UPPERCASE LETTERS does not
start with the ABCs. The most prominent characteristic of this book is that it
starts with easy-to-write letters and then proceeds to more difficult letters
step by step, regardless of alphabetical order. Different strokes such as
straight lines, diagonal lines and curves are introduced in an incremental
manner so that children do not grow tired of studying letters. The North
American popularity of this book proves the Kumon Method's "practice makes
perfect" effectiveness.
Ages 3-5.

My First Book of LOWERCASE LETTERS
-
US$7.95
C$8.95
-
This sequel to My First Book of UPPERCASE LETTERS encourages children to begin
with lowercase letters that have simple strokes such as l, t, and i and
gradually moves on to letters containing diagonal lines and curves. Through a
series of connect-the-dots and tracing exercises, children become familiar with
the shapes of letters naturally. Although this unique approach to the alphabet
may seem roundabout, learning to write letters effortlessly will speed a
child’s recognition of the alphabet later.

My Book of SIMPLE SENTENCES
-
US$7.95

Writing simple sentences can be difficult for young children, as the skill
requires understanding the most basic grammar concept: noun-verb agreement.
This book makes writing a simple sentence easy by gradually introducing the
concepts of 'noun,' 'verb,' 'plural,' and 'agreement.' By slowly moving from
singular nouns and verbs to plural nouns and verbs, children are finally able
to create a simple sentence and build a foundation for creating more complex
sentence patterns.
