EDUCATIONAL WORD-FORMING METHOD AND DEVICE

摘要

The method disclosed provides for the various combinations of three letters which will form a word to be represented by utilizing the intersection points of three rectangular grids placed side by side in left to right relationship. In the first grid I assign a number of grid points to a selected first letter equal to the number of two letter combinations which can form three letter words. In the second grid the said grid points represent the possible second letter combinations of the selected first letter in the first grid. In the third or right hand grid, these same grid points represent all third letters which will combine with the two letter combinations to form a word. For instance, grid points in line one, rows 15 through 19, represent B in the first grid, A, E, I, O, and U, respectively, in the second grid, and in the third grid, the line one, row 15 grid point represents D, G, R, T, Y, and N to form BAG, BAR, BAT, BAY and BAN, the line one, row 16 grid point represents D, E, G, and T to form BED, BEE, BEG and BET, and so forth.
