When you teach your child the alphabet always remember to make it fun! Teaching the alphabet to your child is the first step to reading and will give your child a positive attitude towards engaging with books and print in the years to come. This is a fun activity that I call "Letter Hunt." Give your child a page with the letters of the alphabet on it(printed or hand written):
- lower case letters only
- upper case letters only
- combination of lower/upper case letters (once confident with letter recognition)
Using a magazine your child can search through the pages looking for letters they recognise, cut them out and paste them on top of the letter on their sheet. This is a fun activity to sit down and do with your child or to set as an independent activity if they are confident with scissor use.
