Voices Children should learn to write letters in the correct sequence. If you demonstrate with different voices, your students will quickly learn and memorize all the steps. This activity is filled with the repetition children need, but it is so much fun that the repetition is never boring. Many Voices videos are included in the Live Teaching Videos located in the Resource section of the Interactive Digital Teaching Tool.
