The purpose is to give children happy experiences with letters, sounds and words. The goal is to give children confidence to attack new words. Approximately 30 minutes per day is spent in group activities that in troduce new skills. Small group and independent acti visites reinforce the skills. Homework activities and paperback books that accom pany the program are being sent home for parents to reinforce skills. Alpha One is a colorful, phonetic, multi-sensory lan guage experience and begin ning reading program in which children meet the letters of the alphabet as fanciful enchanting letter people who get their sounds from their personifications. In this program, each letter is endowed wiith a memo rable characteristic which is associated with the letter sounds. For example. Mr. H gets his sound from his "horrible hair," Mr. B gets his sound from his "beatiful buttons." Miss A is known by her "a-choo" sneeze, and Miss I suffers from a terrible "itch." Alpha One takes the abstract rules of phonics, spelling and reading and translates them into stories about the chil dren's Letter People friends which are easily remember ed. The program is presented through the child-oriented language of very believable cartoon characters and their escapades through stories. games, puppets and records. Children are provided many concrete activities through art. music, touch and taste in order to make letter names and sounds unforgettable. They have the opportunity to use every sensory mode in learning to read. The stories and people are definitely memorable. All on the consonants are boys; all of the vowels are girls; and since there are so few girls (vowels), the consonants promised that the words would always belong to the girls. This means that there will always be a vowel in every syllable. When the letter people work together in letter combinations like "st," the two letters have to push (sqoosh) their sounds together to be pronounced correctly. One of the most important aspects of Alpha One is that it makes learning fun and unforgettable. In addition, it provides a common language experience background, teaches basic decoding skills and facilitates reading with comprehension. Beef Production Meeting According to Keith J. Hairr. assistant agricultural extension agent with the Duplin County Agricultural Extension Service, there will be a swine production meet ing at the Ag.
