Word Study: Alphabetical Order

*Note: If you have already purchased my Word Study and Mechanics Bundle, you will note that the Period Set is already assigned the organizational letter of "I." When I added this set, organizationally I wanted it to be with the original Word Study sets and therefore have assigned it with the organizational letter of "I." However, if you have already purchased the bundle and would like to purchase the heteronyms set, please email me at themodernmontessoriguide@gmail.com and I will provide you with the version assigned with the letter "P" instead.   The direct aim of alphabetizing is to familiarize the child with the alphabetical order of letters and to apply this knowledge in arranging words accordingly.   The indirect aims include: •To prepare the child for independent use of reference tools (dictionaries, encyclopedias, glossaries, etc.). •To strengthen visual discrimination and sequencing skills. •To support reading, spelling, and vocabulary development through word study. •T
