Letter of the Week- Letter M

28
Nov

Our letter this week is the letter M- and as usual I found a cute idea over at No Time for Flash Cards.  We changed it just a bit, but the idea is the same.  We made a Mountain M.

Here’s what you’ll need: construction paper (brown, yellow, white, blue, 2 greens), markers, glue and scissors.

While Hailey was coloring her “M” I cut these out from the other construction paper- 2 white pieces for snow on the top of the mountain, some trees and a sun.

Cut the M out and glue it onto the blue construction paper and then add some clouds (cotton), the sun, trees and snow.
