Oral Communication:
Theme Based LearningThe goal of learning a language is to communicate. Oral communication skills are fundamental to the development of literacy and essential for thinking and learning. It is the glue that puts all the components of a language together.

CHAPTER_2
Simple Sounds of the AlphabetChildren's knowledge of letter names and shapes is a strong predictor of their success in learning to read. Knowing letter names is strongly related to children's ability to remember the forms of written words and their ability to treat words as sequences of letters.
CHAPTER_3
Composed Sounds + Blended SoundsBlending is a crucial skill in learning to read since being able to mentally join speech sounds together to make words helps students to decode unfamiliar words using letter-sound patterns when reading.
CHAPTER_4
Frequent Words Decoding and PracticeIf a student can identify most words in a written text, they are more likely to become more interested to continue reading. Being able to recognize and read high frequency words can make reading and writing easier for children in the early years of their educational life.
