Synopsis
This book uses play, movement, and fun to motivate students as they learn beginning literacy concepts. The games and activities in this book focus on how running, jumping, riding scooter boards, and shouting through the alphabet can entice the most reticent of emerging readers. Will primarily interest elementary school physical education teachers, classroom teachers, and parents. Also may be of interest to preschool teachers, Head Start teachers, and special education teachers.
