Wow! What a difference this made in only 2 short weeks! My students can’t start their day without a learning a new “secret” and singing the letter run songs. Thanks so much!

Last year, at this time of year we had 11 kindergarten students reading at or above grade level. This year, we have 34! The Secret Stories are better than anything out there for quickly transforming kids into REAL readers and writers!!!

What's Included

This card pack includes 26 beautifully illustrated letter sound cards to sing with the Better Alphabet Song®. Research demonstrates that Melodic mnemonics enhance recall by engaging students’ attention and creating strong memory connections. By using a simple, repeating tune, students effortlessly (and quickly) master letter names and sounds. Traditional songs and methods rely on memorization, while this approach taps into the brain's natural ability to store and process pitch, rhythm, and intonation. The Secret Stories Better Alphabet® focuses on the most common sounds of each letter first and incorporates actions to reinforce the sound-symbol connection. The song is part of the Secret Stories® phonics resources.

Remember: The Better Alphabet Song works best if students are using their “muscle mouths,” to articulate each sound, and their “eye glue” making sound-symbol connections as they sing!

The Better Alphabet cards are for teachers to use during a whole or small group lessons, or one-on-one with students. You may also use the cards for partner games, and center activities.
