March Around the Alphabet
Grade Level(s): Preschool, K
By: M. Hartzog

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:

    1. 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.

    2. Spread the alphabet out on the floor.

    3. Have the children create a circle around the alphabet.

    4. As the teacher plays an upbeat tempo of music (any choice), the children "March Around the Alphabet".

    5. Instruct the children to freeze, bend down, and pick up a letter near their toes when the music stops.

    6. 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.
