This is our alphabet chart. Your child may use this as a resource when writing or reading. Many children may still benefit from reviewing the chart with you daily. See video below for letter and sound review.
Our letter formation chart is a great reference when coaching your child in printing. We remind the children that printing should be in lower case letters unless it is the first letter of their sentence or the first letter of a name.
The children have been learning consonant blends and digraphs. This chart will help them as a reference when they are reading and writing.
When your child needs a reminder for short vowel sounds, they can use this tool as a reference.
