Description
This material is part of the Early Childhood Montessori language arts curriculum. The Montessori approach to early literacy consists of four series of incremental materials: The Pink Series, The Lilac Series, The Blue Series, and the Green Series. The Green Series contains phonogram words. “Phonogram Picture & Word Labels” is part of the Green Series.
The Green series is introduced through the 3 following incremental and concurrent steps:
1. Phonogram Picture Cards and Moveable Alphabet
2. Phonogram Pictures & Word Labels
3. Phonogram Word Lists
Children read word labels, to which they are familiar, and match them to the picture cards. The Green Reading Series contains the following phonograms: /ch/, /sh/, /th/, /ai/, /ee/, /ie/, /oa/, /ar/, /er/, /or/, /oy/, /ue/, /ue/, /ou/, /au/, /oo/, and /qu/. This reduced version of our Green Series works in parallel with the 16 Nienhuis Double Sandpaper Letters.
