Letter Expert Sentences

An important part of our kindergarten curriculum is to learn all the letters of the alphabet and the sounds that they make.

Each child will be assigned a letter and become the"letter expert".  Letter experts will be expected to name the letter, produce it's sound, write the letter properly, and read the letter's special sentence. These sentences are related to the sound the letter makes. There is also a motion associated with the sound. 

Letters will be introduced a few at a time.  All letters should be introduced by December. 

For fun at home, have your child read the following sentences and demonstrate the motion for the letter sound. It might be fun to have your child demonstrate the sounds for you to name the letter and visa-versa! Have fun practicing!
