2. Marungko Approach for Letter Recognition:

The Marungko approach, an inventive and kid-friendly technique for teaching letters, was the
focal point of the program. Teachers introduced and reinforced the alphabet's sounds and shapes
using a variety of visual aids, narratives, and interactive games. The ability to recognize letters
using both visual and auditory clues was the main focus.

3. Sounding and Identifying Letters

Students actively engaged in letter identification and sounding out exercises to improve their
letter recognition abilities. Letter sorting games, letter tracing, and letter-sound association
exercises were among the many practical tasks that were included. Making learning engaging
and memorable for kindergarten students was the aim.

4. Reading Syllables
After successfully grasping the basics of letter recognition, the session transitioned to reading
exercises. The students were introduced to syllables and then after that reading simple words.

Essential language development skills were successfully reinforced on January 19, 2024, at the
Grade 1 Learners' Catch-Up Friday Program. Students improved their letter recognition skills
and started the process of reading syllables with the use of the Marungko approach and
interactive exercises. Assuring that every Grade 1 learner has the fundamental knowledge and
skills required for their academic path, the program strives to maintain offering a nurturing
learning environment.
