Putting Words in ABC Order
In order to learn ABC order, kids must first understand what it is. ABC order is a way of organizing words alphabetically from A to Z.
How to Teach ABC Order
Kids need a lot of practice with alphabetizing words. To start, you can provide your student with a letter strip.
This provides them with a visual reminder of the order the letters appear in the alphabet.
Once your kids have a firm grasp on the alphabet, you can remove the letter strip and encourage them to say the alphabet in their head as they put the words in order.
