We introduce the sound first and then we introduce the letter as how we spell the sound. ABC BOOTCAMP is aligned to the science of reading and has been since it was created! After 26 days, we have 80% mastery of all letters and sounds! And it’s fun and developmentally appropriate!įor each sound and letter, we make a circle chart. Handwriting and hats will be done in our afternoon PLT block which is 45 minutes.ĪBC BOOTCAMP is research-based and aligned to best practices.
