The high prairie is a hidden world above a winding river valley in the foothills of the Rockies. You cannot see it from the riverbed below. When the valley lies under a dense mat of fog, several thousand feet upward, blue sky and bright sun bathe this prairie grassland. From the high prairie, you can see snow-covered mountain peaks many miles away. This book of poetry shows how it is possible to live above the valley of this life with its tragedies and failures by choosing the view from the high prairie.

High/Scope distributed product-Endorsed by the High/Scope Early Childhood Reading Institute, this book focuses on phonemic awareness-the ability to recognize the smallest sound units that make up words-identified by reading experts as an essential skill that prepares children for reading. The 130 phonemic awareness activities included in the book are suitable for small-group learning in preschools, prekindergarten programs, Head Start programs, child care centers, and home-based programs. The activities are based on the latest scientific evidence about what children need to become confident and successful readers and writers. They also reflect the research-based, classroom-tested, and internationally recognized teaching strategies of the High/Scope early childhood approach. The activities fall into five content categories: identifying sounds, building rhyme awareness, building alliteration awareness, recognizing letters, and developing letter-sound awareness. The book offers more than enough activities to meet the standard of 20 hours of phonemic awareness practice recommended for all preschool children by the National Reading Panel and endorsed by the U. S. Department of Education.

Suitable for all early childhood educators and practitioners, Letter Links is all about the alphabetic principle from a child development point of view. It highlights the importance of using symbols in preschool along with printed letters. Letter Links takes childrenÂ's natural interest in learning to write their own name as an entryway to teaching them letter recognition skills, letter-sound correspondence, and letter/word writing by using nametags and letter-linked images. The authors also provide eight specific teaching strategies. Letter Links outlines the research behind the learning system and provides detailed examples of 64 initial letter sounds represented by 26 letters. These are the letter combinations you need to introduce the bookÂ's more than 25 fun-filled activities that involve the alphabetic principle, phonological awareness, sense of word, and vocabulary.
