LETTER OF THE ALPHABET BOOKLETS

I am so proud to now offer you my "Letter of the Alphabet" booklets.  When trying to create a language-rich environment in your classroom, you should find all the words you will ever need in these booklets!  Each booklet has these features:

1.  Dozens of words that begin with one letter of the alphabet.  For example, the words in my "Letter Aa Booklet" all begin with Aa.  The words in my Bb booklet all begin with B and so on. 

2.  The words I list in my booklets aren't limited to just the easier soft and hard phonic sounds.  For example, my letter Cc booklet includes words with these phonic sounds: Soft c, hard c, ch, cr, cl, etc.  
 
3.  For almost all words, I suggest either a children's book, an activity or both.      
  
4.  I place each word under a specific academic or skill category just as a suggestion for where you might use the word in your lesson plans - but, as always, it's your choice.  For example, my Aa booklet includes Aa Words to use in pre-math, language, physical skills (small and large motor), science themes (like Aa Animals, Aa Foods, Environmental-Nature Aa words), creative expression (including Art), Music Appreciation, and Socially Related Aa Words.  And I also include a section called "Aa Teacher Words of Praise."  

5.  Each booklet page is printed out on an 8 1/2 x 11" sheet of white paper. 
 
6.  Booklets will be mailed to you in a loose leaf format for filing in a notebook or sheet protectors, or you can simply staple the pages together.     

The booklets make great gifts for teachers or for anyone who is teaching the alphabet to young children.  They also make great conference door prizes.  If you are interested in collecting them for yourself or for your school, go to the order form link at the foot of this page, and remember, SHIPPING IS FREE!

Add a toy airplane to the blocks center, and during your first group time of the day, suggest that children use the blocks to create an airport for the airplane.

Add an anchor to the blocks center, or at least post a picture of one on the wall above the center with the word printed underneath it.

Place an anvil with a rubber mallet and some pretend crumpled aluminum (foil) in the blocks center for the children to pound.

Place a toy ax in the blocks center and let children chop pretend wood (Styrofoam chunks).  (Provide a special area for this as it will get extremely messy - but oh what fun!)
