Hey Super Student Syllable Sleuths, Let's Go On A Word Hunt!
Some teachers like to make up packets to send home over the summer so that students don’t forget things that they learned over the year, or perhaps you need a home-school connection right now for those little ones still struggling with some of their letters.
I designed a fun activity called ABCDe-tective Home Alphabet Word Search.
Children trace the upper and lowercase letters, (you can also have them write them) and then scamper around their home looking for words that begin with each letter of the alphabet.
When they find one, they write it down in the appropriate spot.
There’s a blank space in the magnifying glass so students can write the capital letter as well.
This packet includes a letter home to parents explaining the project + a certificate of praise and an ABCDe-tective Achievement Poster to list the student’s names who complete the booklet, if you decide to do this as an all-class activity.
