ABC

Since Presley will be beginning preschool in the fall, I thought it would be a good idea for her to learn how to write all her letters. She can already identify them and tell you the sound, but writing is something we haven't worked on yet. I thought we would take a letter each week, do a few activities with that letter, and practice writing it. Our goal: in 26 weeks be able to write all the letters in the alphabet!
We did an activity for each day of the week then practiced writing that letter when we were done. Here are a few of the activities we've done:

We started with "A"

We made some ants out of egg cartons.

Dadda and Presley practicing the letter "A" on her doodle pad.

Painting the letter "B"

Filling in the letter B with beans!

We made a butterfly out of a clothespin, construction paper, and pipe cleaners.

When we're done with each activity, we post it on our chalk board. Here's our "B" board at the end of the week.

Filling in the letter C with cats and cars stickers.

We also made a cake for the letter C

And here's the best part...licking the spoon!

Presley is getting so much better at writing her letters!
Can't wait to tackle D, E, and F!!!
