Writing Preparation

Audio Dictative Word Building is a language exercise which hones a student's ability to discriminate individual letter sounds. A Montessori guide can bring together a group or individual student as a means of assessing or reinforcing the knowledge present, even assisting students who may be struggling to retain specific certain letter sounds. Using the moveable alphabet, students are asked to spell out simple 2 and 3 letter words on a rug.

The Moveable Alphabet is at the core of the early reading and writing activities in the classroom. Remember, as guides, we are trying to show children increasingly interesting ways to engage with concepts that they show a willingness and readiness to learn. By giving students a tactile component to early language development, a Montessori Guide is able to approach the process of phonetic lessons in a variety of ways. The lessons in this section are designed to introduced the Moveable Alphabet, and it will be involved an nearly all aspects of a child's learning throughout the early reading program.

White Level activities are an introduction to the relationship between phonetic symbols and the sounds the represent.
