Letter of the alphabet teaching ideas
A game of alphabet letter is an easy and fun way to learn the alphabet.
Alphabet letter games can be as simple as asking your child to find an item that starts with the letter A, or as complicated as a crossword puzzle.
There are many ways to play alphabet games.
Here are some ideas:
-Alphabet letters can be used in a word search game.
You could use this idea for both younger and older children if you want to make it more challenging by adding in words that have more than one letter per word, or you could use this idea for younger children by sticking with single-letter words.
-Create a treasure hunt using only items that start with certain letters of the alphabet. For example, “Find all the things that start with A.”
