  A typical English word book is written with both Japanese meanings and English words, or has Japanese meanings and English words drawn on the front and back of the page. When learning English words with such an English word book, it is common to look at the Japanese words after looking at the Japanese, or look at the Japanese after looking at the English words and remember the association And pronunciation is memorized by katakana or phonetic symbols.

By the way, when preschoolers learn English, learning with an English word book is not enough to learn Japanese, so it is not easy to connect Japanese and English consciously, so it is not very suitable. Absent. On the other hand, preschoolers are said to be good at memorizing what they see instantaneously as video. This is because such ability is excellent in memory ability that is subconsciously taken into the subconscious, and it is considered that learning using such ability is suitable for preschool children.
In addition, since a conventional English word book visually recognizes English words as one lump, it is often seen that spelling is wrong even if you remember English words.
From this point of view, the present invention can learn English character strings such as English words using subconsciousness mainly for preschool children and reduce spelling errors regardless of the user. An object is to provide an English character string storage book that can be used.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention has the following configuration.
The invention according to claim 1 is composed of a booklet formed by binding a plurality of elastic sheets to store an English character string representing an array of English characters, and constitutes the English character string An English character string storage book in which notations representing individual alphabetic characters are displayed on one side of a sheet as one to three characters, and the sheets are arranged so as to be arranged in the order of the English character strings as viewed from the front side.
It is. The English character string is mainly English words, but other English idioms, 26 alphabets, etc. are exemplified.
According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the English character string storage book, the character written on the one sheet is a character corresponding to one pronunciation unit in phonics. In this case, it is assumed that a character that does not emit a sound in phonics is also regarded as one pronunciation unit.
The invention according to claim 3 is the English character string storage book according to claim 2, wherein when two or three characters are displayed on the one sheet, the character is a character when one character is displayed on one sheet. Different notations are used.
According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in the English character string storage book according to the second or third aspect, when the character shown in the one sheet is a character that cannot be pronounced, the character is different from the character to be pronounced. It is indicated by notation.

The invention according to claim 5 is the English character string storage book, wherein the object represented by the English character string is represented by a figure, at least one of Japanese and English is displayed on the sheet where the English character string begins. It is shown on the one side of the sheet that overlaps or the one side of the sheet where the English character string begins. In the present application, the drawing includes a photograph.
According to the sixth aspect of the present invention, in the English character string storage book, the notation representing the alphabet is derived from a figure of 26 hand patterns corresponding to each character of the 26 alphabets in a one-to-one manner. Selected.
The invention according to claim 7 is the English character string storage book according to claim 6, wherein the notation representing the alphabet is a combination of the figure of the hand shape and the letters of the alphabet, The figure and the letters of the alphabet are represented by different colors.
In the invention according to claim 8, in the English character string storage book, a notation representing each alphabet constituting a character string of English words is shown one by one on the other surface side of the one sheet, The sheets are arranged in the order of the character strings as viewed from the side.
The invention according to claim 9 is the English character string storage book, wherein the plurality of sheet bodies include one edge side of the surface of the sheet body on the most surface side and one edge of the back surface of the sheet body on the most back surface side. It is a holding means for holding, and is bound by being held by a holding means formed so that the holding can be opened.

With the configuration as described above, the present invention has the following effects.
The invention according to claim 1 is used by holding one end with one hand and bending the other end side so as to quickly turn one sheet at a time like a so-called flip book. When used in this way, a visual effect is generated in which the letters representing the alphabets that make up the English character string appear and disappear instantly in sequence one character at a time. In addition, because of these visual effects, English character strings are recognized as moving images with an apparent consciousness, and subliminal effects capture them into the subconscious. Therefore, especially for preschool children with high memory ability in the subconscious area. An English character string can be effectively stored. Also, by storing one character at a time, correct spelling can be learned, and spelling storage errors can be reduced.
According to the second aspect of the present invention, the character written on one sheet is a character corresponding to one pronunciation unit in phonics. Each unit is visually recognized, and the pronunciation is recalled at the same time, so that the character string and the pronunciation can be stored simultaneously.
According to the third aspect of the present invention, it is visually different from the case where many characters are used as one pronunciation unit by indicating two or three characters as one pronunciation unit in phonics by different notation from other characters. Can be recognized effectively, and can effectively learn what is a single phonetic unit of two or three unique characters.
In the invention according to claim 4, by making a character that does not sound in phonics different from a character that does not sound, it is possible to recognize that when the character appears, it does not sound visually, and instantly recalls the correct sound. It becomes possible to do.

In the invention according to claim 5, by expressing the object indicated by the English word on the first sheet, the character string of the English word can be stored after the object is first conscious. In particular, when the object is represented by a diagram, the memory can be more effectively fixed in combination with the image memory.
The invention described in claim 6 utilizes a character (hereinafter referred to as “finger alphabet”) in which each letter of the alphabet is indicated by a corresponding predetermined hand shape. It is difficult for preschoolers to write and remember the alphabet, so learn by combining the shape of the hand with the letters that make up the alphabet. It is known that memory using a muscular motion perception system remains in long-term memory, and the finger alphabet can be stored effectively without using paper and a pen. When the character strings written in the finger alphabet are sequentially displayed in a state where the finger alphabets are stored in this way, stimulation is also given to the motor area of the brain, so that the memory can be fixed more effectively.
According to the seventh aspect of the present invention, the alphabet letters and the finger alphabets can be instantly recognized by storing the alphabet letters and the finger alphabets in different colors, and the alphabet letter strings can be stored simultaneously. it can.
In the invention according to claim 8, since the notation corresponding to the alphabet character string indicating the English word appears like the flip book from the back side of the English word book, compared to the case where the English word is written only on one side, Double English words can be posted in one English word book.
The invention according to claim 9 is that each sheet body is bound by a holding means capable of opening nipping, and if there are a plurality of English character string storage books, the sheet body can be rearranged as necessary. It is also possible to perform learning such as collecting separated sheet bodies to create an English character string.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
(Embodiment 1)
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an English word book X according to the first embodiment. Note that the English word book X is an example, and the composition is not changed, but the written contents and the number of words are changed according to the English word. The English word book X is a booklet formed by binding four elastic sheet bodies 10 such as cardboard and plastic plates on the left side, and a predetermined notation is made on one surface side of each sheet body 10. 2A to 2D show examples of written contents of each sheet body 10. FIG. 2A shows the uppermost sheet body 10, and a picture of the bag is shown as a notation 11 indicating an English word object on one side. FIG. 2B shows the second sheet body 10 from the top, in which a letter 21 of the alphabet “b” and a picture 31 representing a finger alphabet b described later are displayed. FIG. 2C shows the third sheet body 10 from the top, in which an alphabet “a” character 22 and a picture 32 representing a finger alphabet “a” to be described later are displayed. FIG. 2D shows the fourth sheet body 10 from the top, in which a letter 23 of the alphabet “g” and a picture 33 representing a finger alphabet g described later are displayed. That is, in the English word book X, a picture of an object indicated by an English word is shown on the first sheet body 10, and alphabet letters that are notations representing alphabets constituting the English word sequentially from the second sheet body 10 And finger alphabet pictures arranged one character at a time. Although it is monochrome in FIG. 2, the letters of the alphabet and the picture of the finger alphabet are actually displayed in different colors so that the difference can be seen at a glance.

  The finger alphabet written on the second to fourth sheet bodies represents each letter of the alphabet in the form of a predetermined hand. FIG. 3 shows the hand shapes of finger alphabets a to i, FIG. 4 shows the hand shapes of finger alphabets j to r, and FIG. 5 shows the hand shapes of finger alphabets s to z. . By remembering the alphabet as a hand movement in this way, it is easy to memorize in conjunction with the motor area of the brain, and the finger alphabet expresses the lower case letters of the alphabet by hand, so remembering the finger alphabet means that the alphabet of the alphabet Lower case letters can be easily remembered.

Next, a method of using the English word book X having the above configuration will be described. The English word book X is mainly used for the purpose of acquiring English words for preschool children, and is prepared for each English word. First, as a premise, the learning subject is made to acquire the finger alphabet and phonics. Phonics is a method of linking sounds and letters used in English-speaking child education. The English alphabet, like Japanese hiragana, does not match the pronunciation of the word with the pronunciation of the word, so the word cannot be pronounced just by looking at the spelling of the word. For this reason, in English-speaking children's English, phonics that connect sounds and letters are generally used. Specifically, in phonics, for example, the alphabets a, b, c, d, e, f, and g are expressed by sounds similar to katakana, “air” “bu” “ku” “do” “d” “ It is memorized as “F” and “G”.
In the finger alphabet and phonics acquisition method, each time a letter of each alphabet is pronounced while singing an ABC song, the action of the finger alphabet corresponding to that letter is performed, and the relation between the action and the alphabet is stored. In this case, No. 1 sings with “A”, “B”, “Sea”, “D” and normal alphabet readings, and No. 2 sings with the pronunciation of “phon”, “bu”, “ku”, “do” and phonics. To. By simultaneously performing and repeating the song, action and pronunciation in this way, it is possible to store the alphabet sound, phonics sound, finger alphabet shape and action in association with each other.

The child who memorized the alphabet, finger alphabet, and phonics in association with the previous learning as described above, or the assistant quickly held the left edge of the English word book X and quickly turned the right edge to display the first to fourth sheets. Let Then, the picture 11 of the bag, the letter 21 of “b” and the finger alphabet 31 of “b”, the letter 22 of “a” and the finger alphabet 32 of “a”, the letter 23 of “g” and the finger alphabet of “g” 33 will appear sequentially. The child who saw this, the letters of the appearing alphabet and the finger alphabet can not be recognized as sound at the moment they are seen, but can be recognized as a moving image, and at the same time the subconscious memory as image information In addition, the finger alphabet reminds me of memory as an action, so it works on the motor area of the brain. In addition, the sound of the word is naturally recalled based on the phonics from the video memory of the alphabet letters that appear sequentially or the afterimages of the finger alphabet. Taking the word book X as an example, after the first bag picture is shown in the word book X, for example, the pictures representing the finger alphabets “b”, “a”, and “g” appear sequentially. The corresponding phonics sounds “bu” “air” “gu” are recalled naturally and stored in association with the image of the bag first seen. Further, since the letters of the alphabet and the picture of the finger alphabet are displayed in different colors, they are also recognized and stored unconsciously.
As described above, the English word book according to the present embodiment can instantly display notations representing alphabetical character strings constituting English words in the order of the character strings, so that it is easily memorized as an image in the subconscious, especially attending school. It is effective for learning of previous children.

(Embodiment 2)
FIG. 6 shows a perspective view of the English word book Y according to the second embodiment. Note that the English word book Y is also an example, and although the configuration does not change, the written content and the number of words change according to the English word. The English word book Y is a booklet formed by binding five elastic sheet bodies 10 such as cardboard and plastic plates on the left side. In the English word book Y, the sheet body 10 is bound by being sandwiched between the holding bodies 40. FIG. 7 shows an exploded perspective view of the English word book Y. The holding body 40 is a rod-like body made of an elastic plastic having a length substantially equal to the length of the short side of the sheet body 10 and is formed in an isosceles triangle shape having a wide apex cross section. With such a structure, when the sandwiching body 40 is inserted from the elongated opening portion formed in the longitudinal direction into the left side of the stacked sheet body 10 having a thickness larger than the width of the opening portion, the opening portion becomes elastic. And firmly hold the sheet body 10 so as not to be separated.

A predetermined notation is made on one surface side of each sheet body 10. FIGS. 8A to 8E show examples of written contents of the sheet bodies 10. FIG. 8A shows the uppermost sheet body 10 on which a mouse picture 11 is shown as a notation 11 indicating an English word object, and a mouse alphabet notation 11 is also shown. FIG. 8B shows the second sheet body 10 from the top, in which an alphabet “m” character 21 and a picture 31 representing a finger alphabet m described later are displayed.
FIG. 8C shows the third sheet body 10 from the top, in which a letter 22a of the alphabet “ou”, a picture 32 representing the finger alphabet “o” and a picture 32 representing u, which will be described later, are displayed side by side. . In phonics, one character is basically stored in correspondence with one pronunciation as a pronunciation unit, but there is an exception that pronunciation is associated with a plurality of character strings with two or three characters as a pronunciation unit. “Ou” is one of them, and “au” or “a” corresponds to a sound similar to katakana. In addition, “ea” “ow” “oa” “ue” “th” “ch” “sh” “wh” “tch” “high” “dge” Etc. In such phonics, it is easy to recognize that a character that corresponds to pronunciation by two or three characters is represented by a different notation such as a color or shading different from other alphabets.
FIG. 8D shows the fourth sheet member 10 from the top, in which an alphabetic character “s” 23 and a picture 33 representing a finger alphabet “s” to be described later are displayed.
FIG. 8E shows the fifth sheet member 10 from the top, in which an alphabet “e” character 24 b and a picture 33 representing a finger alphabet “e” to be described later are displayed. This “e” is a character that is not pronounced in phonics. This is also an exception in phonics, and some characters do not pronounce. Other examples of non-pronunciation characters include “w” for “write” and “b” for “lamb”. Such non-sounding characters are easily recognized by different notations such as a different color or dotted line from other alphabets including the two or three characters. Here, the letter “e” is represented by a dotted line.
In the English word book Y, the letters of the alphabet and the picture of the finger alphabet are displayed in different colors so that the difference can be seen at a glance.

The English word book Y having the above configuration is the same as the English word book X according to the first embodiment. However, it is assumed that the learner further learns about phonics and character strings that are pronounced with two or more characters and characters that are not pronounced. In the English word book Y, the character strings that are pronounced with two or more characters and the characters that are not pronounced are written so that they can be visually distinguished from other characters, so even if you turn the word book quickly, these characters Can be recognized by the subconscious as image information and stored unconsciously.
In addition, since the English word book Y holds the sheet body 10 by the holding body 40, it can be easily separated. Learning by incorporating play such as separating the sheet body 10 from the English word book Y and separating it, and collecting the sheet body 10 into words, or a word different from the original sheet body that has been separated It is also possible to use it by making different English word books in combination.

In the above embodiment, the sheet body on which the picture representing the object of the English word is drawn is provided on the first sheet body on which the English word starts. You may make it draw the picture showing a thing. In addition, the expression of the English word object can be changed as appropriate, such as a picture, a character, a combination of these, in addition to a picture.
Further, in the above-described embodiment, one English word book per word is used, but a bundle of these may be a single book, and different English words with the same configuration on the back side of the sheet body 10 May be described.
Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the picture showing the object of the English word is shown on the first page. However, when the assistant uses the object after speaking, the English word book is used as a name tag on the actual object. In the case of attaching to the display, the display indicating the English word object can be omitted.
In the above-described embodiment, an example in which the alphabet and the finger alphabet are written together has been shown, but only the alphabet or only the finger alphabet may be written.
Moreover, in the said embodiment, although a character and a picture are described only on the surface of a sheet | seat body, you may make it write a character and a picture so that another back side may represent another English character string. In this way, different character strings can be learned on the front and back surfaces of the English character string book.
