Talking Points
- Letters are like little shapes that come together to make words. Let's have fun finding and recognizing them!
- "Today, we are going on a letter hunt! Let's see how many letters we can find hidden around us."
- "When we put letters together, they make words. Can you think of a word that starts with the letter 'B'?"
- "Let's get creative and make an alphabet collage with colorful letters. What letter do you want to start with?"
- "Drawing objects that start with the same letter helps us remember the sound that letter makes. Can you draw a 'C' and add some things that start with 'C' around it?"
