An exciting multi-sensory phonics activity that helps students learn letter names, sounds, and formations through engaging games, songs, and hands-on exploration.
Alphabet Adventure transforms letter learning into an exciting journey! Students explore letters through multiple senses - seeing, hearing, touching, and moving. This activity uses Caribbean cultural elements like local foods, animals, and places to make letter-sound connections meaningful and memorable. Each "adventure" focuses on a letter or letter group, building phonemic awareness and letter recognition in a fun, engaging way.
ELO 1: Learners will listen, speak, read, write, view, and represent to explore thoughts, ideas, feelings, and experiences.
ELO 4: Learners will demonstrate an understanding of sounds and symbols.
Fill a container with letter manipulatives. Students "fish" out letters and identify name and sound.
Create a class collage for each letter using pictures cut from magazines of things that start with that sound.
Groups of students use their bodies to form letters on the floor. Take photos for a class alphabet book.
Create a class book with each page featuring a letter and Caribbean word: A is for Ackee, B is for Breadfruit...
