ABC Foundations Books 1-3
Tanzi’s ABC Foundations™ Learning System
The ABC Foundations Learning System is a structured, three-book instructional program designed to support early learners through guided instruction, repetition, and independent practice.
This system combines reusable laminated workbooks, headphones, and QR codes that connect to a visual teacher to create a focused, one-on-one learning experience without requiring constant adult instruction.
What’s included in the system
This complete learning system includes three coordinated books, each with a specific instructional purpose:
Book 1: Letter Recognition
Introduces uppercase letters through clear identification, repetition, and teacher-led instruction. The visual teacher models letter names and beginning sounds while speaking directly to the learner.
Book 2: Coloring & Before-I-Write Skills
Reinforces letter familiarity through coloring activities and pre-writing exercises that develop hand control, directionality, and writing readiness.
Book 3: Tracing & Early Writing
Provides structured tracing activities that reinforce correct letter formation and support early writing development.
Each book is laminated, allowing learners to write, erase, and reuse the pages multiple times.
How the system works
Each book includes a QR code that connects the learner to a visual teacher.
Once the QR code is scanned:
- The learner puts on the headphones
- A visual teacher appears on screen
- The teacher speaks directly to the child
- Step-by-step instruction is provided for each activity
The learner follows along independently while receiving clear verbal and visual guidance.
Why headphones are an essential part of the system
The headphones are a core instructional component.
They:
- Reduce background noise and distractions
- Improve attention and focus
- Support language processing and comprehension
- Create a calm, one-on-one learning environment
This allows the learner to engage with the visual teacher without interruption.
Who this system is designed for
The ABC Foundations Learning System supports a wide range of learners, including:
- Shy or quiet learners
- Independent learners
- Learners who benefit from repetition
- Learners who need structured instruction
- Learners with attention challenges
- Learners who benefit from visual and verbal teaching
Because children learn at different rates, this system is ability-based rather than age-based.
Ideal for
- Home learning
- Tutoring
- Small-group instruction
Minimal adult involvement is required. Once the system is set up, the visual teacher leads the lesson.
