博客來A Day with the End of the Alphabet exposes readers to the sounds and interactions of the last five letters of the alphabet: V W X Y Z. Their stories help remind readers to try their ＂other＂ sounds when decoding an unknown word.
It is one of an innovative alphabet book series that uses stories as ＂cognitive hooks,＂ a research-based learning strategy that makes it quicker and easier for learners to retain and retrieve information by connecting it to something already known or experienced. The knowledge is internalized through story, making it as accessible as one’s own thinking.
The Secret Lives of Letters books are for everyone hoping the children in their lives-especially struggling readers-will approach reading with confidence and bravely interact with language, developing a lifelong love of reading.
This book can be read in one sitting or read in parts to highlight a specific decoding strategy or spelling pattern.
