Manage episode 397668702 series 2982014
Shayne Piasta discusses best practices for teaching alphabet knowledge. She tells us what the research suggests about teaching letter names and sounds, why teaching a letter of the week may not be the most effective approach, and an order to teach letters. The best part? She shares concrete ideas and strategies for classroom practice.
Takeaways
- Teach both letter names and sounds simultaneously.
- Consider the acrophonic principle, where the letter name gives clues to its sound.
- Avoid teaching letters of the week and consider a faster pacing for letter instruction.
- Be intentional about the order of teaching letters, considering children's names and frequency of letters in text.
- Use differentiated instruction and embedded mnemonics for effective alphabet instruction.
Resources
- Handbook on the Science of Early Literacy
- The Science of Early Alphabet Instruction, chapter 7
- Ohio State University Alphabet Learning and Instruction research and articles
- Ohio State University Early Literacy and Learning Lab
