Let's Learn ALL about the Letters in the Alphabet (Writing, Identifying, and Sounds)

In this ongoing class, students will learn all there is to know about each letter in the alphabet.  We will work on identifying, writing, and sounds.  These letters will not be taught in the traditional ABC order.  They will be taught in the order that is the easiest to learn to write, beginning with the big line little line letters (Ll, Tt, Ii, Ff, etc.).  I will introduce the new letter, talk about how it is built, using terms like: big line, little line, big curve, little curve.  We will use playdoh to build the letters.  We will then listen to a short phonics song.  I will show different props that begin with the new letter and after, the students can show or tell something they know begin with the letter.  We will then complete an activity sheet.  The sheet will cover, identifying, writing, and sounds.  Lastly, the students will complete a themed activity sheet (for example: Ll is for leaves).  

**After class, the students can color in their new alphabet letter, showing they have learned a new letter.  At the end of class, students will have a colorful rainbow of letters learned.
