They found the\u00a0influence of working with “Learning\u00a0Alphabet Package” during this short period incredible.

Project’s implementation in most of the classes covered by this project has led to enthusiasm and creativity in teachers, excitement and delight in children and it has made a great evolution in children’s reading and writing in Persian. The children who used to study in strict environments, now share the joy of reading with the stories and songs of\u00a0BroCrow (KakaKalaghe, main character of “Learning Alphabet book”). In some schools the teachers have drawn spider\u00a0characters from\u00a0book on the walls. Some teachers have made puppets of BroCrow and take them to class and children are waiting every session to hear short tales from these puppets. Alphabet cards and posters are hung\u00a0on walls in some classes. In some multi-grade classes, teachers read the books for whole class and students from upper grades show interest in short tales and their related activities.<\/p>\n
