Alphabet Song

In kindergarten, children learn their letters and their corresponding sounds. Some have difficulty learning and/or retaining the letter sounds. Lately I have been reviewing letter sounds more for a couple of my students who seem to have been forgetting their letters sounds, and need more practice. We have been learning a new alphabet song in class. The problem is, not all of my students need as much review as others.

For my project, I thought it would be a good idea to record myself singing the song. This way I could use it in a listening center created just for the students who need extra practice on alphabet sounds. The students could look at the alphabet and point to the letters as they listen or sing along.

I decided to ask my son to play guitar for me as I recorded myself singing. Hope you enjoy.

I thought it would be fun to read with the dialect.
