Contents: 48 hand-shaped cards (10 x 9 cm) with English capital letters on both sides of each card. 2 of the cards are empty. Each letter is repeated twice or more. A set of stickers is added to provide a possibility to add missed letters for such languages as Lithuanian, Latvian, Estonian, Finnish, German and Polish.
Objectives: For children at age from 4 to 6: to acquire capital letters; to learn join letters (sounds) into syllables and words, developing skills of doing basic synthesis and analyses of sounds; to learn to differentiate left and right side. For older children or adults: to develop reaction, observation and concentration skills, while using letters and words of their language.
Playing:
- Use the cards to have two in one: a useful entertainment activity, and a fun table game. The game can be played by 2 to 4 players. It consists of two rounds. First round: search correct two-letter syllables by putting each hand on one letter (the left hand on the first letter of syllable, the right hand on the second one). Having made a correct syllable, you can collect the corresponding cards. The second round: make as much logical words as you can by using the collected cards.
- Taking into consideration children’s abilities and teachers’ objectives, corresponding activities may be done:
1. In order to acquire such conceptions as “right” and “left”, place the cards on a flat surface. Let children sort them, put their hands on fitting cards, name, and compare them.
2. Develop children’s basic skills of doing synthesis and analyses of sounds if they already know the letters. Place two hand-shaped cards (left and right) in front of the child. At first ask him/her to put one hand on a one card, and then the other hand on the other card – the child should pronounce separate sounds during this action, e.g. M – A. If both hands are put on the cards at the same time, child should pronounce the syllable, e.g. MA. Use the rest of the letters to make and read various syllables and words.
3. Place the cards on a flat surface and make various compositions and patterns.
