ABSTRACT:
A method and means of teaching children alphabet recognition and learning handwriting in which a plurality of transparencies are provided, each with one of the nine basic shapes required to construct all the letters, lower and upper case, and a transparency of a figure, such as a house, is also provided with the floors or stories defining the desired spacing. The transparencies are superimposed stepwise to construct a given letter in the spatial boundaries and the child, using a kit comprised of a card on which the figure is represented and components, such as plastic pieces, in the form of the nine basic shapes, repeats the demonstrated method. Thereafter, the child repeats the letter constructing process by removably placing basic letter components on a picture of the figure on the wall or easel so that the teacher may observe the child's learning progress. Finally, the child draws the letters on papers having horizontal lines spaced apart for proper placement of the letters.
