“Effective astonishment. Learning to read triggers thinking” is an original project by the team of prof. Monika Wisniewska-Kin. It engages children in a unique way to learn the basics of reading. It allows them to discover sounds on their own and translate them later into graphic symbols. Specially prepared blocks, tokens and a book illustrating the sounds that surround us every day serve this purpose. And it is the book that has been prepared by Marta Ignerska. Congratulations!
- It is a picture that dominates in this picture book of impressive dimensions (305 × 420 mm). A short, usually rhymed text facilitates associations concentrated around sounds. This picture book is treated as a task for the reader. A child not only watches and “reads” it but also builds a sequence of events around 22 sounds that dream, experience and feel. Blank pages wait to be filled in with a project of a child (as an author of the continuation of the story about sounds) - describes prof. M. Wiśniewska-Kin.
