You must be teaching pre-K? If I remember correctly, you start with "s"; easy to write, easy to say. Then "c". And start with lower case first. The idea is that they put their pencil to the paper, and make one continous mark without lifting their pencil. Also introduce the consonents before the vowels. Abrams & Company has the materials.

I use the Carnine Order:
Start with lower case: a m t s i f d r o g l h u c b k v e w j p y
Move on to upper case: T L M F D I N A R H G B
Then some more lower case: x q z
And some more upper case: J E Q
This order prevents confusion by keeping similar-looking letters away from each other.
And of course, you should teach letter sounds before letter names.

I teach high school and have no expertise whatsoever on this topic-but I very vividly remember being taught about M-Munching Mouth-first. Why, I don't know....but I do.

If you are a teacher I can only hope that you explain things to your pupils more clearly than you wrote this question as it makes no sense at all.
