Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

Learners sing an alphabet song while pointing to the letters on the wall in the classroom.
Teacher creates two name cards for each pupil with their first names. Give each child their name card and keep one on a line close to you. Play a game where learners will pick up their name tags and peg it unto the one on the line every day of the week. Have the learners continue matching their name tags the whole
week until they are able to recognize the letters in their names and can write their own names.
