Letter A | Alphabet Song for Kids | Let's Learn About The Alphabet | Phonics Song | Jack Hartmann

Learn the letter A. This Alphabet song in our Let’s Learn About the Alphabet Series is all about the vowel a.

Your children will be engaged in singing, listening and following along as they’ll learn to: identify the alphabet letter, form the upper and lower case letter, say the letter sound clearly and accurately. They will see, hear and say both the long and short vowel sounds at the beginning and middle of a variety of storytelling words.
This letter song also includes a catchy chorus that will motivate your children to want to learn about the alphabet, and at the end, an inspirational reading rap.
All of the alphabet songs in this series have a great beat, lots of repetition and curriculum based reading and language arts content that meets state, national and common core standards. All of the letters that we use and the way we form the letters follow the Zaner-Bloser Handwriting Manuscript.
Your children will want to sing this catchy, cool, reading skill song over and over. They will hear the long and short vowel sounds at the beginning and middle of each word.

Listening to this engaging, reading, skill-building alphabet song and following all the printed words and entertaining visuals, your children will develop their phonological awareness, phonics and language arts skills.
The very helpful educational feature of each song is a close-up of Jack saying each letter sound clearly. Your children will be able to see how Jack forms his mouth to say the sound correctly. Children can model these mouth positions so they can say the letter sounds correctly, too. We hope your children both enjoy and learn from each one of the alphabet songs in our Let’s Learn About the Alphabet Series. Sing and watch them over and over again.
And, as an extension activity, see if you and your children can think of new words and stories for each letter. We found searching for words for each letter to be very challenging and really a lot of fun.


Lyrics:

Get ready, get set, Let’s Learn About the Alphabet
26 letters, that’s it, Let’s Learn About the Alphabet

Let’s learn about the letter A
A is a letter, a is a letter, a is a letter

A is a letter
A is a letter
A is a letter
A is a letter in the alphabet
This is an uppercase A
Write it in the air like this
This is an uppercase A
Write it in the air like this
This is a lowercase a
Write it in the air like this
This is a lowercase a
Write it in the air like this

Get ready, get set, Let’s Learn About the Alphabet

Letter a is a vowel and it has two sounds
Letter a is a vowel and it has two sounds
I say the short sound /a/ /a/ /a/ /a/ /a/
Now you say the short sound /a/ /a/ /a/ /a/ /a/

At the beginning of these words
Listen for the short sound /a/
There was an alligator, alligator, alligator
On an adventure, adventure, adventure
To pick some apples, apples, apples
To make some applesauce, applesauce, applesauce

In the middle of these words
Listen for the short sound /a/
There was a rat, rat, rat
And his friend the cat, cat, cat
They loved to rap, rap, rap
In their cool caps, caps, caps

I say the long sound /a/ /a/ /a/ /a/ /a/
Now you say the long sound /a/ /a/ /a/ /a/ /a/
At the beginning of these words, listen for the long sound /a/
In April, April, April
I met an ape, ape, ape
Who wore an apron, apron, apron
To eat some acorns, acorns, acorns

In the middle of these words
Listen for the long sound /a/
There was a snake, snake, snake
Down by the lake, lake, lake
Who baked a cake, cake, cake
In a silly shape, shape, shape


It’s fun to learn about the alphabet
And I’m really gonna’ try and do my best
Learn each letter, learn each sound
Learn how to write each letter down
I feel so good deep inside
Right now I’m learning how to read and write

Get ready, get set, Let’s Learn About the Alphabet
26 letters, that’s it, Let’s Learn About the Alphabet
