The Letter Ee

The Letter Ee!

Elephant Shapes - This project comes from the http://www.first-school/ website.  We talked about shapes and made an elephant to go with our letter Ee.  

 

Elephant puppets - We made elephant puppets.  We modified the templates from the http://www.first-school.ws/ website. 

Ee is for Elephant - I don't have a picture of this, but I printed off block letter E and e from the dltk-kids website.  Addie glued pictures of Elephants onto upper and lower case letter E.  We cut out the letters and glued them to a piece of construction paper.

The Letter Aa

 I am teaching Addie the alphabet, so we started with the letter A - since her name starts with A!  I printed off block upper and lowercase A's from the dltk-kids website.  I then printed off apple shapes and cut the apples out.  Addie glued the apples onto the upper and lower case A's.  I cut around the A's and glued them to a piece of red construction paper.

Addie made an Acorn Man for one of her letter A activities.  I traced the template pieces onto brown paper and cut them out.  Addie glued the Acorn man together on yellow paper.

I printed this awesome apple template out and let Addie color it.  I helped her with some of it.  She then glued the awesome apple to a piece of red paper.  (We modified the apple a little bit).  I wrote Addie's Apple Man on the top of the paper and had Addie circle the upper and lowercase A's.
