There are several songs that we sing every day to help us learn and remember the letters of the alphabet and the letter sounds. Here are the links to the two songs we use for letters and letter sounds:
This song is by Barbara Milne. She has a very soothing voice and it seems to calm the kids:

Every day while at school we checked in with the eagles that live in Decorah, Iowa. We had conversations about what we saw, something we noticed, a detail that stood out to us, etc... Each child had a chance to comment on the eagles. For those who are non-verbal, we gave them the chance to point to something on the screen that they enjoyed seeing. After commenting on the eagles we scrolled up to see other views of the world. Each child had a chance, at least once during the week, to choose a different camera to watch. Some of our favorites were the Manatees, Bison, Alligators, and African Wildlife. Please take the time to watch the live cameras and have a conversation about what you notice.
