The Startup Reading Letter Names and Sounds Workbook, Book 1, is designed for young learners to engage with both the names and sounds of each letter. Students learn that every letter has two jobs: it has a name, and it has a sound.
We recommend starting the lessons in Book 1 with a “Warm-Up” by singing the ABC song. This fun warm-up helps engage young children in the lessons.
Generally, younger students do best when practicing a few activities in Lesson 1 for about 15-20 minutes. A parent can gauge their child’s level of engagement to determine how many video lessons and activities to complete at a time.
Our experience has been that young learners have fun and connect to the lessons in Book 1 by starting sessions with a “Warm-up” by singing the ABC song.
Our experience has been that younger students generally do best when practicing a few activities in Lesson 1 for about 15-20 minutes. A parent can determine their child’s level of engagement to determine how many video lessons and activities to complete at a time.
The key component of the student learning experience is to have your child complete the activities as they are watching the videos. Each lesson starts with an overview of the lesson, directions on the correct workbook page, and a confirmation that the student will follow the lesson by making notations on the page.
