I have come to the decision that I want to look at the alphabet as a teaching opportunity, I feel that by looking at alphabet charts and various other things that teach children letters it will give me an insight of the market of my target audience.
I started by making a list of words for each letter of the alphabet that are memorable for children of a young age and decided to put them together to create a short story, I did this because I believe that by telling a story to child, it is more likely to stay in their memory instead of just giving them a list of words.
Here is my short story...
Once
upon a time there was an ANGEL
carrying a BALLOON,
she visited a CASTLE
where there was a DRAGON
holding an ENVELOPE.
She
climbed a FENCE,
went through the GRASS
and over
the HILL
where she
found an INSECT
that she caught in a JAR
and gave to the King.
He
gave the angel a KEY
for box with a LOCK
that had in it, a MIRROR
and a NECKLACE
that was shaped like an OVAL
and belonged to the princess.
It
was kept in her POCKET
until she found the QUEEN
who gave her a ROCKET
for her to reach the STARS.
The
angel then stood under a TREE with an UMBRELLA
while she listened to a VIOLIN
and with a wave of her magic WAND
the sound of a XYLOPHONE
was heard.
Finally
she played with her YO-YO
as she ZIG-ZAGED
home.
I think that by using each highlighted word as a representation of the letters of the alphabet, I could knit a piece for each letter so it could be used as individual pieces, displayed on a classroom wall, or pieced together to create a learning mat or blanket.
