Anyway, I have a new goal to start doing letter activities with Kirkley a few times a week. I thought I'd blog about this so someone will ask me how it's coming. I'll be to embarrassed to say I quit! Right now, we think she only knows K, M, and O.
I love the site No Time for Flash Cards -- some of the stuff is a little too bust out the paint and glitter for me so I'll be changing it to crayons and glue stick use more! I printed out all of the letter activities that are super cute by using this link:

To find each letter, just change the last letter in this address from capital A to whatever letter you want to find in her activities. Most are pretty easy and super cute! I highlighted the title, pic, and step 1 then printed the selection only so that I didn't get all of the step by step pics. I hole punched them and threw them in the family organization binder.
Then we headed out to the Dollar Tree to see what supplies we could mark off of the list to add to our craft box {that has been collecting dust since July 4}. Here is my master supply list for the ABC activities -- most can be found at the Dollar Tree so start there!
- construction paper (2-3 packs)
- liquid glue
- glue stick
- markers
- crayons
- googly eyes (yes, found these for $1!)
- craft feathers
- puff balls
- pipe cleaners
- scissors
- glitter (for use on just a few of the letters -- don't get nervous:)
- cotton balls
- jelly beans (jelly bean J!)
- sequins/rhinestones
- leaves (leaf L)
- marshmallows (for M)
It took 15 minutes max today to prep Alligator A! Maybe we'll have an Apple for Afternoon snack!? :)
This was it for the prep:
Results to come! Anyone have any other types of letter activities they love???
