Ideas to teach letters at home

Dance Mat Typing
Just for your information, this is the web site for the typing practice that the students are doing in Computer class.  I know the children are struggling a little in finding the letters on the keyboard.  Maybe if they become more familiar at home with the program, they will feel more comfortable in class.

If your child is still struggling on letters and sounds here are some ideas to help at home.
ABC travel game - while in the car, see how many letters you can find in the street signs.
Letter Flashcards - check the yellow assessment page that will come home on Tuesday and make flashcards for the letters they are still working on.
Letter I Spy in books- while doing your reading homework, have your child look for letters in the books you are reading.
Apps - writing wizard, ABC tracer
