Three common myths about alphabet knowledge

Updated: May 13


3 common myths about alphabet knowledge busted:

 

MYTH 1: every letter needs the same amount of instruction time

TRUTH: children don’t need the same amount of time to learn each letter [such as first letter of their name and family member’s names].

 

MYTH 2: children can only learn one letter at a time

TRUTH: if letters are relevant to children’s world, they can learn more than one letter at a time.

 

MYTH 3: just introduce the letter and children will learn it

TRUTH: for children to learn the alphabet, they must have an interest and connection to the letters the letters must associate with their world.
