Foreword

ABC en ESPERANTO is a coloring book. It enables Home Schooling parents

and other teachers who lack foreign language training to start teaching a secondlanguage to their children. The absence of irregularities in Esperanto permits itto be learned much more rapidly than other languages. STEP by STEP, throughpictures, shortconversational sentences, and questions about the pictures, thechild learns to read and speak Esperanto correctly using a limited vocabularyand basic grammar.

STEP ONE: Children say the names of the pictures they color. Older childrenespecially enjoy learning to pronounce words they recognize, such as birdo,elefanto, hipopotamo [hee-poh-poh-TAH-mo], fio [FEE-shoh], kato,roboto, and zebro. Later, they love to test themselves by reading the pictureword alphabet on the cover -- beginning at the top left hand corner.

STEP TWO: They read along with the teacher the sentences on the page; thenpractice saying the sentences without help.

STEP THREE: They read with the teacher the questions and answers at the

bottom of each page. When able to read and answer the questions easily, theyare eager to ask others to answer the questions.

We visualize a younger child, besides coloring the pictures and feeling that itis her own book, proudly "READING" the A, B, C pages; following the threeSTEPS at a slower pace. (A warm, cozy, snuggle in a lap, if the teacher is aparent or grandparent.)

From the beginning the book is FUN. Children achieve success easily because

the meanings of most of the words are obvious from pictures and context. At thesame time they effortlessly use pronouns and the present tense of verbs.

The book fits right in with the goals of our international club, LA MONDASTELARO: It encourages children to use Esperanto by asking and answeringquestions; and to introduce Esperanto to others with attractive teaching materials

which they have helped create. It also helps them experience the glow ofshowing off their skills to parents, grandparents, friends and younger siblings.

The book also helps teachers, relatives, older siblings and babysitters enjoy

Esperanto through discovering that they too can READ it. (It's such anexciting, satisfyinglanguage -- "five times as easy as English.") In LAALFABETO and at the end of the book we give the pronunciation andmeanings of basic words; and, at the end, examples of the short questions andanswers. LA ALFABETO does not include the Esperantoletters and because very few words begin with these letters.

On Side B of the cassette which accompanies our 8-page booklet forchildren,Flugu kun PETRO, an expert Esperantist pronounces the A, B,C, words for you.
