Lively letters focuses on the sounds a letter makes, before introducing the name of the letter. In addition, this program introduces the lowercase letters BEFORE introducing capital letters.
You may ask yourself, "Why work on the lowercase letters first?"
Look at the excerpt from the book below:
Count how many uppercase letters there are in total....that's right....8! ONLY 8 uppercase letters as opposed to 18 lowercase letters in JUST that first box! It's important for students to learn how their MOUTHS work when saying a sound and then learning the NAME of that sound by exposing them to the lowercase versions first.
