Letters

B is very smart and learns quickly, but he hasn't quite mastered all of his letters when they are out of order.  B's mom asked me to work with him and so we have been learning one or two letters a week.  It's nothing formal and he usually only stays interested for a few minutes.  But he catches on quickly, so it all works out.

To reinforce each letter we learn, I decided to cut each letter out of construction paper and then fill it with corresponding pictures (stickers).  I also find magazine pages with big words (so he can find the letter himself) that he can cut out and glue on each letter.  He LOVES to use his "red safety scissors" ALL THE TIME.  

None of these happened in one sitting, we keep them out and everyday we will kind of talk about them and add something to them when we come across it.  We started out doing one letter a week, casually.  And this week he asked if we could learn 2, so I guess I was moving too slow for him!
