Just before storytime, I teach the kids one new letter of the alphabet, and we practice making its sound. Then we practice saying the names of the letters we have learned so far, and finally we sing The Learning Station's ABC Phonics song - just up to our new letter.So far this year we are up to the letter K.
They are always so eager to move on to the next letter. This week they were so disappointed they could not sing the letter L for Lion until after Christmas!
The pace is lively enough to make it fun, but not too fast. The melody is super simple. I'm always impressed how much the kids enjoy singing this; they take learning their letters very seriously.

ah - ah - apple,
Bear Starts with B,
b - b - bear,
... and so it goes. So simple and effective.
