Alphabet Stew and Chocolate Too:  Songs for Developing Phonological Awareness, Literacy, and Communication Skills  - This book is available NOW if you contact me by e-mail.  Click here for a sneak peek at the Table of Contents.

Description:  Help all children maximize their potential for literacy by developing a foundation of reading readiness through the motivating medium of music.  By systematically teaching kids to manipulate and play with the sounds of language, you will witness a leap forward in both literacy and communication abilities.  As a teacher or parent, you will become comfortable with teaching a continuum of phonological awareness skills.  You will also learn valuable strategies for developing the speech-to-print connection, teaching sight words, and improving both inflection and reading comprehension.  This 215 page e-book is jam-packed with specific strategies for using music, rhythm, and visual supports to teach specific literacy skills identified in the Common Core Standards to both children with special needs and their typically developing peers.
