Since we skipped Letter K accidentally, we back tracked and made it up last week.  Here are some of our K activities.

Letter K and birthday countdown 009

This is not a K specific activity, but I try to throw in whole alphabet activities whenever I can.  This was originally intended as an interactive letter line to hang on the wall, but I never got around to hanging it so we turned it into a game.  On each clothespin is a sticker of a letter.  She had to match the lettered clothespin to the correct letter card.  Both phonics and fine motor practice in this game.  She loved it so much I think we ended up laying it three times this day!

We made a letter K king by gluing a king crown on top an then of course she had to have her very own king crown!

She has really love typing letters lately and has recently asked for me to spell certain words for her to type.  As you can see, her number one is her friend Lylah’s name!

This is a color by number picture I made of a kite and the sun.  She did great at finding the right number and coloring it, but she still hasn’t caught on to color the whole area and not just the number.

Kangaroo letter game.  I drew out a kangaroo and cut up different letter cards.  She had to look at the letter cards and fill his pouch with only the letter K.

We also glued kernels of corn onto the letter K, but I didn’t get a picture.  We did some counting with the kernels as well.  We move on to the letter N next since we did M a few months back!
