1. Environmental Print: Teachers collect food labels, toy traffic signs, and other examples of environmental print for children to use in identifying letters. Children sort labels and other materials to find examples of a letter being studied.
2. Alphabet Books: Teachers read aloud alphabet books to build vocabulary and teach words that represent each letter. Then children reread the books and consult them to think of words when making books about a letter.
3. Letter Stamps: Students use letter stamps and ink pads to stamp letters on paper or in booklets. They also paint letters using letter-shaped sponges and make cookies using letter-shaped cookie cutters.
4. Letter Sorts: Teachers collect objects and pictures representing two or more letters. Then children sort the objects and place them in containers marked with the specific letters.
5. Whiteboards: Children practice writing upper- and lowercase forms of letters and familiar words on whiteboards.
