I realize I am blogging about the Letter A in January which is not the letter most teachers are working on at this time of year. If you have already passed by this letter way back in September, please look through the resources I have found on this lesson and file away what you may need when it comes around again next year. I will be adding on letters from time to time and try to have something blogged about all of them by the start of school next year.

ReplyDeleteYour ideas were superb for teaching my two and a half year old daughter.I was getting a bit frustrated because she could not properly draw the letters but your animation assisted her.
ReplyDeleteLove this blog! I plan to use the letter A tracing page that you have posted. I hope that these pages are available for all of the letters. I wasn't able to find this same page on any of your links though. Do you know if this sheet is available in the other letters? Thanks for your help!
