VIENS! ON VA APPRENDRE L'ALPHABET ENSEMBLE

Mew starts learning ABC in French now. She is excited to show us her homework and willing to sit down to finish it. However, her attention span is rather short, thus she is not quite happy if we repeat some exercises for several times as the teacher requires.

Her first few lessons focus on French vowels. It's not difficult for Mew to distinguish the sounds of "a", "e", "i", "o", "u" and "y". However, today we had a problem with "é" (accent aigu), "è" (accent grave), and "ê" (circonflex). I confused myself with these sounds as I thought "é" and "ê" seem to be similar in pronunciation whereas in accordance to the International Phonetic Alphabet, "è" and "ê" turn out to have the same symbol. I am seeking for the help from her teacher to clarify this issue.

The following resources of French ABCs could be of great help for your children during the beginner's stage:
