Letter Ideas
Are you participating in a form of “Letter of the Week” and find yourself struggling to think of objects/items to feature with your child? It seem like most weeks I’m struggling to think of words/themes/objects, etc. I can think of tons of them for future or past weeks but I seem to get gun shy when it comes to the current letter. I decided to create a list for myself and I add to it periodically so that when that week comes, I have a nice handy list to work from and figure out projects and activities for.
I have decided to create a page just for this very thing, rather than the text file on my computer that I have been using. I’ll add to it when I think of more. I figured that if I was struggling to come up with a variety, then maybe other people are too so maybe I should share the list.
