SMART BLOCKS "ABC" RUS - The manual for the game of teaching

36 SMART BLOCKS consist of 144 planes with letters, numbers and punctuation marks. Each letter and number is repeated 2-6 times depending on their language frequency.
The blocks have all the ABC and punctuation marks on it’s planes. The bases of the blocks are connectable in a way that allows only left-to-right direction of the words and automatically prevents the letters from reverse-reading or upside-down position.

Thus, in the process of reading not only speech-motor (when a child is pronouncing the letters and words) and visual images get activated, but also a motor image of word-combinations presented as a set of blocks. It allows fuller and more active synchronization and also considerably improves visual memory.
