This book has been developed to furnish teachers and parents with ideas for activities and games which aid children in the transition from oral language to printed language for reading and math. These games are designed to provide children with activities and experiences that increase vocabularies and make them useful in communication, language study that relates children's own speech to reading and math skills, and contact with ideas and language as used by other people. Games, made from the following common materials, are outlined: string, pizza board, golf tee, egg carton, clothes pin, party supplies, paper clip, flash and picture cube, pointer, card pin, paper cut out, and pockets and tiles. Also included are word lists, material lists, and an order form. (JM)
