Building Language for Literacy features characters who inspire and motivate learning. Each character leads children on a language adventure to different places in the community, helping children not only develop language skills, but a sense of the world around them, as well. Naming With Nina--Nina loves words, so she names everything she sees! She will help children name different objects in some familiar (and maybe some new!) places in and around town. Rhyming With Reggie--Reggie loves to play with sounds, so he rhymes every chance he gets! He will help children pick out words that sound alike, so children develop an awareness of patterns in language. Letter Recognition With Leo--Leo loves letters, so he spells whenever he can! He will help children match letters, so they become familiar with not only the shape of letters but the connection between letters and the sounds they make. These games are great for not only extending the lessons appearing throughout Building Language for Literacy, but also for helping any children develop their oral language, phonological, and letter knowledge skills.
