Learning the ABC -A SIMPLE TOOL FOR TEACHERS

It's very important to know the English ABC if you're learning English or even if you're an English speaker and you need to spell a word. You can learn the ABC singing which is funny but difficult to remember how to pronounce a letter correctly if you don't sing the whole song.

Try it�teaching your students common sounds for the different letters in the ABC like in the following chart:

/ei/

/i:/

/e/

/ai/

/iu/

/ou/

/a:/

A

H

J

K

B

C

D

E

G

P

T

V

F

L

M

N

S

X

Z

I

Y

U

Q

W

O

R

�Then, you can practice spelling with your students dictating words, playing the Hangman , trying the exercises below or whatever other good idea you get.
