L is for Lion

 

This is Lenny the Lion....he is a washcloth!

I will always try to pull objects from around the house to go with the theme.  For example, when we did B is for ball, we went 'shopping for balls' in the shopping cart. And we pressed our house keys into the playdough for K is for keys.

I have these stickers that were from my scrapbooking supplies.  Each week we do a big letter and stick the stickers on the page.  Sometimes we rip pieces to make a mosaic letter or we paint or stamp.  This week we did Do-a-Dot markers (I got mine at the dollar store....not recommended because they aren't washable! Check amazon.com--they are awesome!)

L is for Leaf

I cut a bunch of leaves out and put some with capital Ls and some with lowercase.  She sorted them on each side of the tree.  I was really impressed that she did them correct!  I focus mostly on capital letters right now, but sometimes we do talk about the lowercase letters too.
You can also see one of the printables I have that is for do-a-dots. They have every letter of the alphabet. We also do puff ball magnets or play dough balls on the dots to change it up from week to week.
