It's as if we consider ourselves smarter for not having to study. But, it's how most of us learn to ride a bike, type, drive, dance, play sports or a musical instrument, and it's even how we learn to speak our first language. Picking something up is using muscle memory and happens naturally through repeated passive exposure to an activity. We retain and recall this implicit memory without consciously thinking about it, whereas, explicit memory (memorization of facts, rules and events) is difficult to recall and is quickly forgotten if not reviewed regularly. ABC PickupIn most subjects of study, there is a core of information that is essential to know intuitively in order to retain a functional understanding of the subject and progress with competence. (It would be very difficult to write a story if you had to try to recall every letter of the alphabet one by one as well as every rule of grammar, pluralization, capitalization and punctuation.) ABC stands for Audio/Video, Books, and Cards. ABC Pickup is a proprietary system that integrates foundational elements of a topic into the background of a simple repetitive task such as watching a video, reading a book or playing a game. This system is a natural, stress-free way for early learners, students with learning challenges, second language learners or anyone to pickup the basics of a variety of subjects.Pickup EnglishThis series teaches the basics of reading and English composition, starting with the alphabet and progressing to grammar. Each book is designed to prepare the reader for the next book. For example, the words in books 1 (Letters) and 2 (Opposites) were specifically chosen to expose readers to all the English sounds that will be taught in book 3 (Phonics). Book three then exposes readers to all the extra words that will be used in book four (Rhymes). The goal is to make it feel almost too easy so that the students themselves are eager to move on to the next level with confidence. More Cupcakes1. Letters (Alphabet, words & punctuation) 2.
