Alphbet Action Songs
Alphabet Action

These songs will have you moving to the beat while you learn the letters of the alphabet. For each letter, a phonics song AND an action song are given. The two CD’s include vocal performances for you to learn the songs, and accompaniment (karaoke) tracks for the action songs so you can perform them in assemblies. Stories about each character and reproducible take-home student pages are included so your students can get extra practice. Research has demonstrated that the use of music and movement will really help your students to learn the letters and the sounds that the letter makes. The songs are so much fun that the students won’t know how much they’re learning!
