Early Literacy Learning Activity for Families
You can help your child continue to acquire the key literacy skills they’ve been learning in the classroom while at home. All you need is the Connect4Learning Alphabet Chart.
Learning the names and sounds of alphabet letters is an important preschool skill that supports learning to read. An alphabet chart is a great teaching tool you can use to support your child’s early literacy development.
Learn how you can interact with your child, using your Connect4Learning Alphabet Chart.
- Sing an alphabet song with your child as you point to each letter.
- Name letters, one at a time, for your child to point to.
- Point to letters, one at a time, for your child to name.
