An Ally the alligator puppet is included to support the teaching of phonemic awareness skills, which are vital for literacy learning. Ally only speaks in sounds; she cannot speak in words. Children respond to Ally and their blending and segmenting skills take off quickly. A digital copy of handwriting copy masters and craft activities is also included and is sent via email to the purchaser.
