The Phonics Dance: We will learn about each letter of the alphabet using the Phonics Dance. The Phonics Dance is a fun and effective way for our kinders to master their letters and sounds. The decoding process is made easy because of the rhyme and movement in the learning. Children of all developmental levels benefit from daily practice and reinforcement. We are very excited to share the Phonics Dance with our young learners! Be sure to ask your kinder to tell you all about it! In addition to the Phonics Dance, we will also practice writing our weekly focus letters the "kindergarten way" using our Handwriting Without Tears program.
