Why Aren’t Your Students Remembering the Letters You Already Taught?
Alphabet Academy

A simple, science-backed system that helps preschoolers actually retain letters—so learning actually sticks.

Why aren’t your students remembering the letters you already taught?

Alphabet Academy is a simple, science-backed system that shows you exactly how to teach letters so they actually stick. You can learn it in an afternoon—and start using it right away!


Sound familiar? 

You’re teaching your letter of the week. 

You’re doing the activities. 

You’re practicing the sounds. 


But then… 

  • children mix up letters you just taught
  • they recognize it one day, but not the next. 
  • you go back to review and get blank stares
  • it feels like you’re constantly starting over 


You move on to the next week's letter and hope it sticks over time. It’s frustrating—and honestly, it doesn’t make sense, because you are teaching. 


This isn’t a teaching problem. 

It’s an instructional design problem.

The brain learns through repetition, connection, and revisiting over time, not one-time exposure.

Now imagine this instead!

There’s less pressure to rush through one letter each week. You have time to revisit letters in a way that actually builds understanding.

You’re teaching through play—singing, moving, noticing letters in the world around them. 

Children get excited when they recognize letters in their names. They point them out. They remember.

Review doesn’t feel like starting over. It feels like building. And instead of wondering if it’s working… you can actually see that it is.

Repudiandae

Finally, a clear way to teach letters so they actually stick!
A simple system you can learn quickly and start using right away—without overhauling your entire day.
In just a few hours, you’ll learn how to: 

  • Know exactly how to introduce letters so children remember them 
  • Use simple routines that build repetition without feeling repetitive 
  • Teach through play while still being intentional and effective 
  • Stop guessing what to teach next—and follow a clear plan


This isn’t theory—it’s a proven system that works in real classrooms with real kids. And, it is approved for CEUs!

Meet Your Instructor
Hi, I’m Melissa McCall—literacy enrichment teacher, trainer, curriculum creator, and founder of Moving Little Minds. 

With over 20 years in early education, I’ve worked in classrooms, trained teams, and supported hundreds of preschool teachers and directors across the country. 

I created Alphabet Academy after seeing so many teachers doing everything “right”, but still watching children struggle to retain letters. What was missing was a clear, Science of Reading–aligned path for teaching the alphabet that’s both research-based and playful. 
 
Now I get to watch teachers light up as they finally feel confident moving beyond one-letter-a-week instruction and instead use strategies that help children recognize, connect, and apply letters with meaning. Their students thrive—building strong alphabet knowledge that truly prepares them for reading success. 

This system is everything I wish I had when I was starting out, and it’s here to help you teach the alphabet with confidence, clarity, and purpose.

What Participants Say!

"LOVED this course and have begun implementing the activities. The kids love it, too!

Victoria
Pre-K Teacher
"I would recommend this to all early learning educators. The program has so much information for teaching the alphabet in the course of teaching. Wonderful and I’m so grateful I got the opportunity to learn from you. Thank you so very much. "
Mandy 
4s Teacher

"I've been learning on my own over the last 2 years or so about the Science of Reading and trying to educate our childcare staff the best I can. I mostly have found resources aimed at kindergarten and above, so finding your material geared toward the littlest ones was very refreshing." - ,

"We started the letter cycle in our prek4 class this year and have so many kids reading. The staff that does kindergarten readiness testing commented on how she's never had so many kids with such strong literacy skills. She was unaware of our change in curriculum."

Real Talk: What Might Be Holding You
Back?
“We already use a handwriting curriculum.” 
Perfect—but handwriting and alphabet knowledge are two different skills. One is fine motor, the other is cognitive. Children need both, and this course shows you how to teach letter learning in a way that complements—not conflicts with—your handwriting program. 

  “This just seems like more work.” 
It’s actually less. While there is a plan, if your schedule gets off pace, it's not a problem. Constant review takes the pressure off—you’ll feel lighter, and your students will remember more. 

  “But we’ve always done ‘Letter of the Week.’” 
I get it—it’s familiar. But research tells us it’s not effective. Alphabet Academy helps you move beyond one-letter-at-a-time and into strategies that help children truly connect letters and sounds, faster and more meaningfully. 

  “Won’t my students get confused if we introduce too many letters?” 
  Not at all. Research shows children learn best through cycles of exposure and review, not one letter dragged out for a whole week. With repeated practice in different contexts, letters actually stick faster.
