Letter of the Week: Bb

It’s time to start Letter of the Week again!!  This week is Letter Bb.

I’ve created several new materials to go with Letter of the Week. The first item is for a writing center. The sheet contains the activities of color, circle, stamp, glue, draw, and trace the letter. This comes in ZB and DN font. Next is what I’m calling “Fancy Letters”. It’s all sorts of letter a’s and they must be sorted on the mats by upper case or lower case.

The final activity is what I’m calling my “letter formation skills”. These can be downloaded separately, but I’m grouped them together because they all work on skills using the current letter. There is a letter lacing for upper and lower case. There’s also a do-a-dot mat. One could also just color them, use stickers, or a number of other things. I’ve made a letter formation mat that has the poem on how to form the letter and is large for tracing the dotted letter. (This idea originated when I was asked if I could create something like what Confessions of a Homeschooler has, so I made it my own. The letter formation poem is from Little Giraffes.) Finally, there is a 4-piece puzzle for the upper and lower case letter.

The previously created materials that I created for Letter Bb aren’t available.  I haven’t had a chance to update them.  However, last year I never did get to a couple of the activities that I was creating.  I made magnet sheets and writing practice.  The writing comes in both fonts!!

Letter of the Week: Aa

It’s time to start Letter of the Week in my Y!Group and this year, we’ve decided to do the alphabet in order.  That means that Aa is first up!!

I’ve created several new materials to go with Letter of the Week.  The first item is for a writing center.  The sheet contains the activities of color, circle, stamp, glue, draw, and trace the letter.  This comes in  ZB and DN font.  Next is what I’m calling “Fancy Letters”.  It’s all sorts of letter a’s and they must be sorted on the mats by upper case or lower case.

The final activity is what I’m calling my “letter formation skills”.  These can be downloaded separately, but I’m grouped them together because they all work on skills using the current letter.  There is a letter lacing  for upper and lower case.  There’s also a do-a-dot mat.  One could also just color them, use stickers, or a number of other things.  I’ve made a letter formation mat that has the poem on how to form the letter and is large for tracing the dotted letter.  (This idea originated when I was asked if I could create something like what Confessions of a Homeschooler has, so I made it my own.  The letter formation poem is from Little Giraffes.)  Finally, there is a 4-piece puzzle for the upper and lower case letter.

There’s also many previously released printables in the folder.  It includes a set of Play-Doh mats, 2 writing sheets, and a “My Letter Aa Book”.  All of these printables come in both ZB and DN font.  There’s a set of letter tile mats in there also.  The last item is a set of magnet sheets in upper and lower case.
