Your theme and sub-theme:
Identity
Myself
Describe your activity:
Learning the Alphabet through music. Singing the A’B’C’s….
The children sit in a circle, and the teacher is in the middle with a guitar. The teacher is playing an instrumental version of the Alphabet song on a speaker. The teacher starts to follow the rhythm of the song with the guitar, as the assistant teacher shows the children the letters of the alphabet in a book. The teacher and young students sing along in unison from A-Z and end the sing-along by singing “Now I know my A’B’C’s, next time won’t you sing with me”
What materials will you need for this activity? Provide a detailed list. Remember the materials you will need to introduce the activity (e.g., book) and everything you will need to implement the learning activity, including set-up and clean-up.
– A Play-mat where the children can sit comfortably
– A Bluetooth speaker and an Apple Mac. Download YouTube App
– A book with colorful letters made of cardboard from A-Z. Each letter describing an object
Example: “A is for Apple” “B is for boy”
Describe how you will introduce the activity and what the children will do. Describe the experience step by step.
I will encourage the young students to join in the circle. By turning on the music ahead of time, and allowing them to dance around and play for a few minutes. Then I would call their attention to silence, as they start to form a circle. After turning on the background music, the teacher’s assistant will join me with the book and then the singing would begin.
