New Episode of Literacy Matters: Breaking the Pyramid Myth: Rethinking MTSS for Reading Growth    Watch Now

I am familiar with Mat Man from Get Set to School Curriculum. What is Mat Man’s role in A-Z for Mat Man and Me?

School and District Support

Mat Man builds body awareness and literacy through hands-on play, rhymes, and interactive alphabet stories.

In the Get Set for School and Emergent Writing programs, students build Mat Man using our wood pieces to develop a child’s body awareness, drawing skills, and counting abilities. Our beloved Mat Man greets readers at the start of each Student Letter Book with a rhyme that introduces the letter sounds, names, and exemplar words they will learn.  He can also be found in Mat Man and the Great Alphabet Parade, an engaging read-aloud storybook where students can interact with illustrations and text to look for target words and pictures.
