Preschool Homeschool : The Letter Q
We opted to homeschool instead of enrolling our son in standard Pre-K. I am sharing with you some of the activities we did to learn about the letter Q. Whether you homeschool or not, these are short and sweet ways to reinforce letter learning.
For lunch, we had Quesadillas. We also considered Quiche and Quinoa.
Walphabet’s ABCs Song : We always start with an ABC song. It is something that they can get excited about, since they generally know the tune, and that everyone can enjoy.
I poured Pickling Salt into a cookie sheet and shook it a bit to make it flat. (You can use whatever salt you want… or sand… or whatever…) Then, I drew an example and the kids practiced “writing” the letter “Q”. My son (4) especially loves this activity. My daughter (2) enjoys it too. Fun sensory play!
Highlight-a-Letter by Babbling Abby. I use these for my oldest (4), while my youngest (2), colors on her own so that I can assist her brother with this. She got Queen Martha (Mike the Knight) today.
Sesame Street Letter Q & John John
We did a Q is for Queen craft, inspired by The Princess & The Tot. I cut out the Letter Q and a basic crown shape and let the kids pick out brads to use to decorate them. I underestimated how challenging the brads can be to use, so the kids chose them and I had to do all of the “work.” They still enjoyed it very much. Phew!
Starfall’s Letter Q Activity : These great, flash, interactive activities are a wonderful and FREE resource, as well! The kids really enjoy them! The whole set is available in the Google Play store for Android, Amazon App Store or iTunes!
We hung the Letter Qs on the art wall, and the little letters onto the Alphabet Row to join A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P & T.
I hope you enjoyed! I look forward to sharing more!
