Monday is officially our first day of the new school year, and I can hardly wait! This year, I will be working with Super Tot on learning his letters. We will be doing one new letter each week, and having a review week every 6 weeks. I have always loved the letter crafts that I have seen on various blogs, and I knew I wanted to incorporate that concept into our lessons. Some of the crafts I have seen use the letters at different angles, which I thought might confuse Super Tot during the time that he is initially learning them. I hope to do this type of activity each year, so I know I will use those in the future. However, my creative side also wanted to create some new crafts that I hadn't seen before. I was unable to be original with some of the letters, but you might find some new ideas and inspiration here. Super Tot will be doing these crafts as he learns the letters, but I have put together an ABC Book for him that shows my examples. Here they are: Cover: A is for Angel: a is for apple: B is for Beaver: b is for balloon: C is for Clown: c is for clock: D is for Dog: d is for dinosaur: E is for Eagle: e is for electric eel: F is for Flag: f is for flower: G is for Goose: g is for grapes: H is for Hair: You can't tell in the picture, but the hair is fringed on both the top and bottom. h is for hive: I is for Icicle: i is for inch: J is for Jar of Jelly: j is for jaguar: K is for Kite: k is for kangaroo: L is for Lighthouse: l is for ladybug: M is for Mittens: m is for microphone: N is for Nails: n is for nest: O is for Otter: While I am generally fairly artistic, I botched drawing this otter 3 times. I ended up finding this one online and printing it onto brown construction paper. o is for orange: P is for Peacock: p is for pumpkin: Q is for Queen: q is for quilt: R is for Raccoon: r is for rainbow: S is for Swan: s is for scarf: T is for Table: t is for turtle: U is for Unicorn: u is for umbrella: V is for Vase: v is for vine: W is for Watermelon: w is for worm: X is for Xylophone: x is for x-ray: Y is for Yolk: y is for yarn: Z is for Zebra: z is for zipper: Now I know my ABC's! I hope you are inspired! Linking to: 1+1+1=1 Sun Scholars No Time for Flashcards Mom to 2 Posh Little Divas Preschool Corner Our Country Road The Ultimate Alphabet Collection ABC & 123
