From the Father's Lecture Notes
The easiest lecture in the book: twelve characters, all things we eat and animals we keep, which the child sees every day. What matters is matching the old names to what is in front of him: foxtail millet is 稷, broomcorn millet is 黍, beans are 菽. Match one, and the lecture comes alive.
Translated from Yikonglu's Father's Lecture Notes for the Three Character Classic, written for a parent teaching a child.
