Mr. Alligator Teaches Letter A Through Song

Letter A has always been a favorite letter to teach using the Amazing Action Alphabet Flip Chart. Today I reviewed  the alphabet letters with a variation of an old familiar tune "One Little Monkey." It goes something like this...

"One little letter swinging from a tree
Teasing Mr. Alligator...can't catch me.
Can't catch me!
Along comes Mr. Alligator as quiet as can be 
And chomps a _______right out of the tree." 

The child then says the name of the letter the alligator chomped out of the tree.  If they say the letter's name and sound the letter can be eaten by the alligator and removed from the tree.
