Discussion on Crew 4

I found this page from the Can Teach website that has different songs/
poems related to the alphabet. I don't know how to make a hot link so
here's the address you can copy and paste to look at it.

This site has music you can play while you and your students sing
along. It's also nice because there are pictures that are included to
help with learning letters. Great for emerging learners and ELLs.

These poems can be used for phonemic awareness. They seem a little
challenging, so they might be good for your advanced students. You
all can judge this much better than I.

This site has letter recognition games and progresses in difficulty
from there.

Check out this PBS site for various links related to the alphabet.

This site used rhymes to help with writing letters. This may or may
not be helpful for the program your school uses.
