Abstract
A literacy instruction system includes a plurality of pieces each having a groove in the top face in the shape of a character, such as a letter, numeral, or geometric shape. A flexible, erasable writing surface is permanently adhered to the top face and covers the groove. The writing surface is configured to receive the tip of a writing instrument and resiliently depress into the groove below, whereby a raised outline in the top face guides the tip to aid in writing the character for which the groove is shaped. In an embodiment, the bottom face of each piece is covered in a magnetic material, and the system is packaged with a magnetic board for holding the character pieces. In another embodiment, the plastic writing surface is transparent. These embodiments enable the character pieces to be manipulated quickly and easily, accelerating the process of learning to write and spell.
