In the article, Teaching Phonemic Awareness, it discusses how incorporating songs into the curriculum can help children with sounding out words. The children will sing songs together and this allows the teacher to hear them say the words and see what they need to work on. I like this idea because it seems fun and will get children excited to learn. Also reading aloud nursery rhymes will help teach phonemic awareness. For example, children can read Hey Diddle Diddle to help them with letter D. This is an idea I also like because there is a wide variety of nursery rhymes to choose from and children can pick out certain poems to read.
