Whats the best way to teach little kids the alphabets?

Answer 1

The alphabet song.

Answer 2

Display an alphabet poster in the wall then point to each letter of the alphabet while singing the alphabet song. Its easier for kids to understand the alphabet this way because they will recognize the letters and connect it easily with the song. This worked well to all my kids.

Answer 3

Sing your child the ABC song. There is also an Elmo video that physically shows them the letters as they recite the alphabet( this will help the child recognize the letter that is being said.
---Test your child's knowledge of alphabet letter sounds by using the provided Alphabet List. Point to each letter and ask your child to, "Tell me what this letter says." The alphabet list has no pictures, so your child has to rely totally on memory. You are asking your child to tell you the letter sound, not the letter name. Write down letter sounds that he or she misses. This is a good place to begin fixing your child's auditory gaps.If your child needs to learn most of the alphabet letter sounds, help her create her own Alphabet Book. Staple some pieces of paper together and ask your child to draw pictures of items that begin with the sound of each alphabet letter.You can also teach alphabet letters and letter sounds by using an Alphabet Chart with pictures. Be sure to point to each letter as you are saying the letter name and letter sound. Review the alphabet chart once a day and pretty soon your child will be able to point to each letter and say the sounds himself! I have an alphabet chart tacked on the wall at kid-height of my son's bedroom so he can look at it.When you are teaching a letter sound, be careful not to add an "uh" sound at the end of the letter. For example, letter s should sound like a snake hissing, with no throat sound. Letter s says 'sss,' not 'suh.' If your child learns letters 'c', 'a', 't' as sounding 'kuh,' 'aah,' and 'tuh,' those sounds will not come together to say cat!


I hope this helps.

Answer 4

pupils first could understand that letters are symbols that make sound and once you place them mutually they make words. in addition they could understand that words bypass mutually to make speech and written sentences. as quickly as pupils are attentive to written expression then it's time to start coaching letters. maximum young ones come into kindergarten understanding the alphabet music, yet that does no longer propose that they understand each and each letter and its sounds. Frogstreet Press has some extremely sturdy books, songs for coaching the alphabet. I in many situations do letters of intense frequency first A,M,S,T... I teach 2 letters each and every week beginning the third week of school and in many situations end between Thanksgiving and yuletide. on the comparable time you will possibly opt to be coaching phonemic understanding skills like rhyming, word segmentation, syllables, etc. so as that once you hit analyzing finished tension (in many situations throughout the 2d semester) your pupils are totally arranged.

Answer 5

Repetition and add phonics and recognition. Many kids say the alphabet but do not recognize the letter when they see it or the sound. Get flash cards and point the sound out.

Answer 6

Repitition --the alphabet song is terrific for this..

Note: Did you ever notice that the alphabet song and Twinkle Twinkle Little Star have the same melody?

Answer 7

Both my kids (now A students) sang the ABC song constantly from an early age, as taught by my mom, and that really got in stuck in their heads. Little kids love to sing. Try it.

Answer 8

the alphabet song is the best way.

Answer 10

With our daughter, we sing the song often. My husband sings it to her in English and also whispers it into her ear in German (when we whisper into her ear, she leans in very close to hear). I sing it to her and finger spell it as well, which captures her attention.

I think we're doing a pretty good job!
