Sneak peak into all "5 Letter S" Activities! (Download a Printable PDF HERE)
Or view them in blog posts here:
1. "S" Art - Let's start with letter identification!
2. Sensory "S" - Here we work on letter formation.
3. Decorating "S" (Sensory "S" Activity must be completed before this one) - As we look at our "S" talk about words that start with letter "S" and the sounds that they make. 3-D, hands-on visuals of letters help children understand letter formation which helps them when they start writing the letter with a pencil. Have your child trace the letter with their finger, a crayon or a marker.
4. Sit and Stand: Listening "S"- Use different words to emphasize the sound the letter makes. This supports beginning reading and advances communication/language skills.
5. Sing, Sing Sneaky Snakes - Sometimes, when you are moving, they remember things more clearly. This type of learning addressed the "kinestheic learning language." Let's practice the letter S through movement!
