ALPHABET LINKING CHART

A great literacy tool we use is our Alphabet

Linking Chart. You received a copy of this in your

Kindergarten Readiness folder. It will also be in

your childÕs poetry folder this fall. Please use

this as a learning tool at home. We chant it like

this....(say and touch)A (say and touch)a (say and

touch)apple...say /a/ while touching the A, say /a/

apple. Click to hear the Alphabet Linking Chart
