The present research explores the didactic teaching strategy of sound words which
implements the teaching of vowels through rhythmic syllables. This strategy aims to develop
students' phonemic awareness for the development of their pronunciation skills by making it
more interactive and encouraging greater engagement. Therefore, the aim is to investigate the
impact of implementing the sound word strategy on the development of phonemic awareness in a
group of kindergarten students learning English as a foreign language and its influence on their
pronunciation skills. Based on this, the study adopted an action research approach to collect data
on implementing phonemic teaching strategies with a group of William Kilpatrick kindergarten
teachers through semi-structured interviews. The analysis will be conducted using an action
research approach. It is thus expected that a curricular unit will be implemented to observe the
functioning of this teaching strategy and enable students to be better able to recognize and
produce the sounds of the language, which, in turn, could improve their pronunciation
competence, understanding the impact of implementing phonemic strategies at an early stage and
its contribution to the English language learning process
