Alphabet Lessons Cycle 5: Sound Speech Development
These lessons teach one letter per day in short and clear sessions, based on research showing that students learn best through multiple cycles of the alphabet.
What is an alphabet cycle?
An alphabet cycle is a rotation through the entire alphabet.
How is this cycle organized?
This cycle is organized by sound speech development. The sounds that children learn how to say first are introduced first.
What are the advantages of this cycle?
Students learn how to say different sounds at varies ages. Some sounds will be easier for children to say, and others will be more difficult. Introducing students to the letters they learn at an earlier age will be easier for them to pronounce. If your child is struggling to pronounce the sounds letters make, this is a good cycle to use.
How are the Lessons designed?
Lessons are designed to be taught in a 5-day set. Students will focus on one letter a day for four days. The fifth day is designed to be a cumulative review of the four letters taught in that letter set. After students complete the review day, they will be introduced to the next set of four letters. After 7 weeks, students will have been exposed to every letter in the alphabet and completed one alphabet cycle. If at the end of the 7 weeks students have not shown letter name & sound mastery, they can repeat the cycle or begin a new cycle organized a different way.
What Activities are included?
The activities & routines stay the same throughout each lesson. The only thing that changes between each lesson is the targeted letter. The following daily activities include:
Introducing New Concept
Letter Name Identification
Letter Sound Identification
Produce the Letter
Listen for Sounds
