Finally blogging again.....Letter hide and seek

I have had pictures on my phone of various activities that we have done over the past year.  I have been a little busy having a third child and all:)  This is one of Sophia's favorite games to play.  It is a great way to reinforce letter recognition and have a little fun in the process. 

First, I wrote all the letters on sentence strips and cut them up.  I wrote both capital and lower case letters.

I wrote the match on the back side of the cards (lower case e had a capital E on the back).  This allows the activity to be self correcting.  Sophia could see if she found the correct card or not.

I would give her a capital letter card.  In this case, she needed to find the lower case b to make a match.

I hid the lower case letters all throughout the house. 

Once she found a match, she had to tell me what the letter was.  This was also a great time to teach and review all the letter sounds too. 

We did this over 6 months ago and Sophia still asks me to play!
