How can I use this resource?
These alphabet flowers are educational materials that school kids can make for themselves – they color them in and then cut them out. After this, they’re folded, labeled, and glued into their exercise books. Because of the way they’re folded they can be opened or closed at any time, and therefore they offer children the possibility to make something that they can return to and demonstrate with pride.
In contrast to worksheets, these alphabet flowers are three-dimensional. Working with such three-dimensional, interactive educational materials gives school children more responsibility for their own learning. Simultaneously, this sort of educational material furthers what we call ‘kinaesthetic’ abilities (‘kinaesthetic learning’ means learning-by-doing, through movement). This helps many kids to retain information better... ... on top of which, interactive learning is also more fun!
