Letter of the Week- Review
Sep
This week we are reviewing letters E, F, G and H. So I don’t have a new letter to share. Instead I am going to share the activities we have done for all of the letters so far. I will include links to the original posts. Many of our letter of the week crafts come from No Time for Flashcards.
Letter of the Week- Letter H
Apr
Now that I’m working and Hailey is going to preschool it’s really hard to find time to do the crafts and activities that we used to do. But I miss doing it with Hailey, so I am going to really try to get back into doing more activities with her.
Hailey used a bow to paint the letter H.
For our project that will go into Hailey’s ABC book, Hailey made a House.
She glued various shapes onto her paper and made a house.
The finished H is for House.
Letter of the Week- Letter Z
Sep
We are finally done with the alphabet! Woo Hoo! Here is our last project- we made a Z is for Zebra which we saw over at No Time for Flashcards.
Here’s what you’ll need: construction paper, letter Z, a zebra head, some black stripes, glue.
Glue some stripes onto the Z.
Add a head.
The completed Z for Zebra.
When we get back from our vacation we are going to get back into doing a lot more activities- we are going to go through the alphabet again and have more theme related activities. Check back next week for some new activities.
Letter of the Week- Letter X
Aug
We are almost done with the alphabet! We aren’t doing a lot of crafts as we are busy enjoying the little bit of summer that is left. We are going on vacation in a couple of weeks and when we get back we’re going to get back into our routine of doing more crafts and learning activities.
Anyhoo- this week I showed Hailey 2 choices for the letter X over at No Time for Flashcards and she wanted to make the “X is for X-Ray” choice. We did ours a little bit differently, but we got our idea from there.
Here’s what you’ll need: construction paper- black and white, scissors, crayons, glue and saran wrap.
Cut out two bones and a boarder. If your child is a bit older you can have your child help with the cutting. Since Hailey is almost 3 she is going to start doing a lot more cutting for our projects.
Color the black paper- we used white and silver.
Glue the bones on to look like an X.
Take a piece of saran wrap and lay it on the table, stretched out nice and flat.
Put the black paper face down on the saran wrap and then tape the extra to the back of the black paper.
Flip it over and glue on the boarder.
The finished X is for X-ray.
