Depends on what country you're in. In Australia, and England (I think),
you learn the lower case letters first. You learn the sounds of each
letter, and you can figure out how to pronounce a word. You can't do
that from the sounds of the capital letters.
e.g. wall, wuh-a-ull.... wall
WALL, double-you ay el el, unpronounceable
Not the best example, off the top of my head, but it demonstrates the
process.
For that sort of reasoning, programs like Sesame Street are poorly
regarded in our pre-school educational circles.

George Orwell's '1984' was supposed to be a warning against tyranny, not
a set of instructions for supposedly democratic governments.
