Teach your homeschooler a lifelong love for books, penmanship, and numbers with this three-episode DVD. Filled with animations and inspirational ABC songs, "Rev-Up for Reading" first lays the foundation for phonics by teaching uppercase and lowercase letter recognition, alphabet sequence, short vowel sounds, and letter blending. Then, "Rev-Up for Writing" reinforces letter recognition and simple phonics with a stroke-by-stroke presentation of uppercase and lowercase letters and phonetic sounds. Finally, "Rev-Up for Arithmetic" uses a creative baseball theme to teach children how to recognize, write, and count numbers up to 20. Plus, students learn to add from zero to nine, use correct number formation, and recognize quantity. (Running time: 79 min.)
