Preface
This Alphabet Primer Teacher’s Guide was designed for use in teaching Grade 1
Maguindanaon children to associate the sounds of their language with the corresponding letter
or letters, and to use that knowledge to grow toward becoming fluent readers and creative
writers. This Guide was prepared to be used as part of the Magindanawn* Tongue Based
Multilingual Education Program for Maguindanaon. A multi-strategy approach to literacy has
been adopted, so that the Guide can be used alongside other materials previously prepared by
the teachers, such as Big Books, Big Pictures, Small Books etc.
The Alphabet Primer Teacher’s Guide has one lesson for each letter that is to be
introduced. The lessons includes word-building and sentence-building exercises, as well as
short texts that use the letters being taught in various environments along with other letters
that have already been introduced. Word-building is done using the “onset-rime” concept to
introduce the children to the idea of word families. This is a strategy to aid in learning good
spelling by reinforcing a particular spelling pattern through exposure to words with a common
rime, meaning an identical string of letters with similar or identical sounds. Review lessons
have been included periodically throughout the Guide. These review lessons provide
exercises intended to stimulate children’s creativity. Teachers can reproduce the review
lessons or exercises as worksheets for the children to work with individually in order to
reinforce what they have been learning. Step-by-step instructions to aid teachers with a
presentation of the lessons are provided at the beginning of the Guide.
The writers of this Guide are the diligent Maguindanaon teachers who, under the
guidance of the Department of Education and with the support and advice of Save the
Children in partnership with SIL Philippines, have collaborated to make this publication
possible.
* In this book, writers have decided to spell the name of the language as Magindanawn, but to refer to the people as
Maguindanaon.
