To support your child to learn the alphabet sequence be sure to sing about the alphabet, read books about it, and keep a copy of the alphabet posted at home. The more children are exposed to the alphabet, the quicker they will internalize it.
To support your class to learn the alphabet make sure to post it in a prominent place in the classroom. It can also be helpful to post smaller copies on tables and desks where students work.
