A hands-on approach to developing beginning language and reading skills such as vocabulary, opposites, rhyming, letter sequencing, and letter sounds. Students practice language skills using fun manipulative materials - large, chunky tiles illustrated with vivid, full-color photographs, sturdy plastic 'work' trays, and full-color, photo-illustrated, self-checking activity cards. Great for learning centers, individual and small group instruction, and home-schooling. Includes tray, 100 tiles, 50 activity cards, teacher guide, and four-compartment tile storage that makes center or lesson set-up and clean-up quick and easy.
