Songs for teaching vowels of the alphabet
Since the children love to sing, I like to use songs to the tune of common nursery rhymes. I begin with the 5 vowels since there is no way to read any word without knowing the vowels. Here are a couple that I use.
For those of you who are afraid to sing, don't let that stop you. Young children will think you are GREAT! Believe me I do not have a singing voice but I am told quite often from the kinders that I am GREAT!
This one is a rap which I modified after the students put their
own twist to it.
