From the beginning of the year we will learn about all the sounds of the letters every day when we are "
Kid Writing." Every week we will focus on one letter and find it in words around the room, listen for its sound when we speak, and practice making it when we sing. One of our favorite group activities is singing "The Letter of the Week" songs!

Click on each letter below to find activities to do at home to help your child listen for, make and use the sound of the "Letter of the Week." You'll also find the words to the
easy songs we sing to familiar tunes to practice making each letter sound.
