First Words Picture Dictionary: First words for early reading and writing - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This book has been designed as a first alphabetic picture dictionary, perfect for introducing children aged 3 and up to the skills needed to find the visual meaning of words they encounter in their early reading. First attempts at writing can be supported by using the pictures in the dictionary to look up words they wish to use. The colourful pictures and the clear alphabetic grouping of pictures and words provide a useful non-threatening introduction to initial dictionary use skills. With over 230 words drawn from the Dog Books Early Reader series, traditional early childhood word lists, and supplemented with popular contemporary word occurances, this introductory picture dictionary provides a solid grounding for early reading and writing. The words and pictures cover the natural world, everyday household items, transport, food, clothing, sporting equipment, musical instruments, colour, numbers, toys, and communication. With an overall focus on concrete nouns rather than concepts, the simply drawn pictures are designed to provide a ready reference to improve the decoding confidence of the beginning reader and writer. Large, easily read text and a limit on the number of items on each page support this goal.
