Each week I share 2-3 posts sharing our home preschool learning. This post is only sharing our letter focused work. If we have a theme of the week, it will be a separate post too. All of our general play based learning will be in a final weekly wrap up post called, “Learning with Ladybug.” I am separating out the posts to make them easier for people to find down the road when searching for specific letter/theme activities. See our entire home preschool plan here!

We love our ABC Baskets! I love how much she enjoys digging through them. We play a lot together during the week exploring the contents.

All of the puzzles are always a favorite!

She hopped right up on her shelf to complete them!

Pushing the pegs into the letter L…

I drew an L on our easel and drew one ladybug. She immediately caught on and began drawing ladybugs!

The boys added a couple, but she did most of them! Throughout the week I found her counting them, it was a fabulous activity for her. By the end our letters were full!

CRAFTS

Since my girl loves to do guided crafts with me, I am trying to choose at least 2 per week that either connect to our letter of the week or our theme {if we have a special theme}. This week I chose a ladybug craft made out of egg cartons. I was inspired by the ladybug craft shown here, but she wanted to draw faces so ours turned out a bit differently. Theirs look a little more like actual ladybugs!

On day one we painted, and she LOVES painting so this was a big hit!

On another day we used a hot glue gun to attach the black pipe cleaner antennae and the wiggly eyes.

She used a sharpie to draw on the mouth and the spots.

She played with these little friends all week long, and I am sure will continue to. This craft was a huge success!

She loves the paint cut and glue crafts from Learn, Create, Love. This week we made the lemur…

She wasn’t completely sure what a lemur was so I found a video on National Geographic for her to watch after she made her craft!

We also made the lion!

PRINTABLES

I create a binder with all of the printables I chose and allowed her to flip through and choose something to do.

Again, she chose to do her letter maze first! She also requested to use a Qtip again.

The next few printables are from the Letter L pack which is available here. This printable pack was given to us from a kind blog reader who also creates printables!

She again loved the “letter soup” as we called it. She used a Q tip to paint all of the upper and lower case L’s the correct colors.

She loved the sentence building activity, and even requested to keep her letter K sentence and cards up this week also! When I took them down, she asked where they were!
