    It is a well known fact that the vast majority of children learn the alphabet by rote. In other words they simply repeat the letters and learn them by repetition. The ABC song is probably the best example of this misguided conventional wisdom. The same applies to how most children learn the numbers 1 – 10. Since the alphabet and the number system are the most fundamental building blocks to all future language and mathematical learning in a child’s life… why is it that we do not allow the child to learn it in a way that aids comprehension, not just memorisation by repetition ? In a “concrete” way where they will literally understand the difference between “1” and “2”, or “a” and “b”.
