In “Spice Up Phonics Instruction with Music: Singing and Chanting Through the Alphabet,” a variety of musical activities are used to expose children to sample words for each letter of the alphabet. The primary goal of these activities is to guide children to learn phonics using aural, oral, visual, and kinesthetic modalities. Through the stimulation of different senses, children are better able to store a warehouse of sample words in their long‐term memory.
