Wikijunior talk:NATO phonetic alphabet

Thoughts
Looking through these: --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 23:26, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Isn't B Bravo, rather than Beta?
 * I'm somewhat skeptical of the use of flags for places; if the goal is for kids learn the NATO phonetic alphabet, the flags might not help. Speaking of which, what age range do you envision for your target audience?
 * I'm also dubious of the use of pictures of young people when the word for the letter is a personal name.
 * There are one or two letters where the text is located in a different part of the page than for most pages, aren't there?

sorry for slow reply.


 * Yep, will be ammended
 * Ok, will see if I can replace them with other pictures
 * Issue accepted, do you have any suggestions on how to change this?
 * Which ones, so I can correct this?

 * Looking through just now, the only one I see is P. I could imagine those faces associated with names becoming cues for the names, as a reader of the book gets used to them and starts to associate the face with that name; it's more, well, personable than flags.  It would be kind of an uphill climb though, as there would be no prior association of face with name.  So I'm not completely sure it wouldn't work.  Thus far I haven't though of an alternative approach for these. --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 22:06, 25 February 2019 (UTC)

I see you've shelved this directly under Shelf:Wikijunior. When possible, we like to choose a more specific shelf; are any of the subshelves suitable? Most alphabet books are pre-reader; if not that, perhaps School Time? (Just a thought.) --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 07:16, 28 February 2019 (UTC)

It is not pre-reader because it is not learning the alphabet(a, b, c) but the other way round( alpha, bravo, charlie)? Qwerty number1 (discuss • contribs) 22:27, 3 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Yeah, that's about what I was thinking. This is really for people who already know the alphabet, which could still be on the verge of pre-reader, but could also be most anywhere up from that. --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 22:51, 3 March 2019 (UTC)
