Letter of the Week: F

I recommend beginning this week with a "Fishing for Letters" activity. Begin by showing your child the letter F, then telling him the name of the letter and the "ffff" sound it makes: "Can you think of any words that have the ffff sound?...Does 'fffish?' How about 'fffishing?' Today we are going to fish...for letters!" Use the letters A - F for this activity. The rest of the week, choose from the F-related crafts and videos below.
