This is a lot of fun. The children gain added exposure to the letters while including the excitement of a stop-and-go game!
Materials: index cards
music
Plan: - Write each letter of the alphabet on large index cards. Be sure to put the
capital letter on one side and lowercase on the other.
- Spread the alphabet out on the floor.
- Have the children create a circle around the alphabet.
- As the teacher plays an upbeat tempo of music (any choice), the children "March
Around the Alphabet".
- Instruct the children to freeze, bend down, and pick up a letter near their
toes when the music stops.
- Now the children hold their letter cards way up high and wait for the teacher
to call upon them to tell what letter they have in their hands.
