Pre-K Page Per Day: Letters: Alphabet Recognition, Uppercase Letters, Lowercase Letters, Writing Letters (Sylvan Page Per Day Series, Language Arts)

Bought this as an introduction to the letters before preschool officially starts. My extremely active 3 year old does great with this curriculum. He sings the songs for it and loves building the letters. He even started tracing the letters, which I could never get him to do. I like this idea better than a letter a week curriculum which takes way too long. I notice he can all of a sudden recognize a ton of letters.

Overall, a good workbook for preschoolers. More expensive than other letter-tracing books, but worth the price based on being a Sylvan product, paper quality, and perforated pages.Workbook features 1½ inch traceable letters, 1 inch apart - nice size and spacing for beginner writers. However, each letter has only four samples to trace. We purchased Kindergarten writing paper for additional practice. Amazon offers several loose leaf and tablet options.Page Per Day presents UPPERCASE letters first, then lowercase letters. Uppercase letters are typically taught first, as straight lines are easier to recognize and write. Other methodologies teach lowercase letters first, considering 95 percent of text is lowercase. Another approach is combination/or matching - "A" and "a". Either method is supported with easy tear-out pages.*As another reviewer mentioned, a "b" is mistakenly added to the page featuring "d" -- see attached image.

Just as described

The activities are appropriate, simple and easy to guide new learners through. The print is clean and professional, which I appreciate. There IS a typo on the Lowercase D page (showing a 'b' instead of a 'd' as other reviewers have mentioned as far back as a year ago. You'd think Sylvan Learning would've corrected this immediately!) My biggest complaint is that it is hard to get the pages out. The perforations are horrendous and multiple pages tore, despite my careful attempts at a clean extraction. I find this very frustrating, as I like to scan the pages before they're used so I have back-ups for further reinforcement learning. While I like the books, I cannot say with confidence that I would purchase these again. I would look for other workbooks first, that (hopefully) tear more cleanly.

I like the idea of being able to tear the pages out so it is easier for a little one to work on. Only problem I have found is that there isn't enough space for more practice.

Bought for my learning disabled sister, would recommend it to anyone with a child just starting to learn letters and I like that it was simple enough for children to understand when given direction.

another great tool for my daycare

what I wanted for home practice.

arrived perfectly just as stated
