- The child learns the sequence of letters in the alphabet.
- They understand that each letter represents a unique sound or phoneme.
- They practice pronunciation and articulation of each letter sound.
- They begin to associate each letter with words and objects that start with that letter sound.
- They develop phonemic awareness by identifying and discriminating between different letter sounds.
- They improve their memory skills as they remember the order of the letters when singing the alphabet song.
