Developing the EarlyLearner. Level 1 :: Education by Design Store

Editorial Review
BOOK 1 of 4 (AGES 2-6) Book 1 is a pre-reading experience designed to provide your child with a complete program in perceptual readiness. Here are some of the unique qualities that you will find within these pages. We include all four major areas of perception: visual, auditory, motor, and comprehension skills. Each major category is then broken down into specific sub-skills so that you can understand just what type of learning is taking place. Every page develops only ONE sub-skill to avoid confusion when the child is working the page. A target score on each page quickly gives you a score as well as an incentive for the child to work toward a certain goal. This is very important as it helps a child realize that they have some responsibility for the work they are doing. By filling in the record sheet in the back of the book you will be continually aware of your child s progress. The black and white interior prevents any distractions created by color and provides your child with the enjoyable activity of coloring (a great hand-eye exercise) and personalizing their own book. Teach your child how to learn before you teach them how to read. Skills developed in Level 1 are: MOTOR L-R Tracking, Hand-Eye, Patterns VISUAL Similarities, Memory, Figure Ground AUDITORY Similarities, Memory, Rhyming COMPREHENSION Associations, Sequence, Language

This is a great start for your little one. Helps with eye hand coordination and is easy to use. Your Pre-Ker practices sound recoginition, letter recognition and pre-writing skills. Instructions for the activities and answer key is convenient in the back of the book.

Looks good so far

We haven't worked to much on the book, but from what I see, it looks good. It will be nice supplement to working on prewriting skills and following directions.

Well Done for Preschool

2008-04-12
My 3 1/2 year old girl enjoys doing 1-2 pages of this book 2 or 3 days a week as part of our at home preschool. They help her work on motor skills, which is the area she needs the most practice in out of the four emphases of the book. She likes this workbook, finds it fun and likes the illustrations. I feel she is learning something. We are happy with this purchase.

Developing the Early Learner Bk. 1

2008-02-26
This is a great four book series for three to four year olds. It develops
motor, visual, auditory, and comprehension skills through fun worksheet pages that gradually increase in difficulty. Following a wavy line with a pencil, listening to instructions on how to color, remembering a short list of instructions and following them, learning opposites, learning sequencing, mazes, puzzles, etc. It's lots of fun and will have your child begging to do more even while they're learning!

Great Learning Tool for Pre K - Grade 1

2005-06-22
We received the "Developing the Early Learner" series workbooks, 1-4 as part of our literature based Pre K program. DEL is divided into 4 areas: motor skills, visual skills, auditory skills and comprehension skills. Motor skills include L-R tracking, hand eye, and mazes. Visual skills include similarities, memory, figure ground. Auditory skills include similarities, memory and rhyming. Comprehension skills include associations, sequence and language. The format of the worktext is black/white illustrations, which are perfect for practicing those coloring skills.
These worktexts are great for utilizing with your child to see what their strengths and weaknesses are. You can then work on those areas which need improvement, returning to the DEL as needed to check your childs progress.
We utilize this series along with the "Everything For Early Learning Preschool".
I gave this product 4 stars as our child preferred the "Everything for Early Learning Preschool" over this product.
