Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

Sing a song "All those born on Monday, stand up, and dance.." and perform actions on it. Ask learners to mention their names and that of their family members. List them on the board. Pronounce them and have them listen to those beginning with similar sounds. Eg. Kosi, Kofi, Kafui, Kakra.
