This book presents a method of teaching letter sounds to children; it suggests ways for the elementary teacher or parent to involve children physically, as well as mentally, in the learning process. For example, to learn the letter "Y," children stand with outstretched arms to form themselves into the letter Y; to learn the "Z" sound, children pretend to have wings and make a buzzing sound, pretending they are bees. Once children grasp the idea of acting out a letter or a word, they are able to make an easy transition to the printed or oral form. (MB)
