• learn letters of the alphabets
• recognize the letters of the alphabets
• say the names of the letters of the alphabet
• Voice out the sounds of the letter of the alphabet

Content :

When the children master how to recite the alphabets, the next phase is for them to master how to recite the sounds of all the alphabets as well. If they master the letter sounds even when they can’t recognise the letters, it makes it easy for them to blend and subsequently read.
