The drawing component of Animated-Literacy™ provides systematic phonics instruction and decodable words through a sequence of guided drawing and labeling lessons.  The lessons begin after only two Animated-Alphabet™ characters, sounds, and letters have been introduced.  After learning the sounds and gestures for Polly Panda and Uncle Upton, students draw and label a “pup.”  Segmentation, letter recognition, decoding, and printing skills are developed as students listen for the sounds in pup, gesture and say each sound, and print the word, pup.  Students then blend the sounds to decode and read the words, up and pup.  Sequential instruction continues as short “o” is introduced and students draw and label a “pop,” followed by the introduction of “m” and the drawing and labeling of a “mom.”
