Letter Learning


The Figlet recently decided that her big sister's 
homework looked like fun. 
I'm not sure why, but who am I to argue? 
Time to find some homework for her to do!

Of course I can't just print things... It is in my Art Mama nature to 
MAKE THINGS, 
so in addition to seeking out worksheets, I made a letter game.


Using a 1" hole punch I made 26 disks out of card stock paper. I then wrote all the letters on them, capital on one side and lowercase on the other. I used the negatives (aka paper full of holes) to trace out 26 spaces on a piece of paper. We have a printer that makes copies so I made a few then penned in different objectives such as missing letters, make them all upper/lower case, etc. The result is a game that seems like it can grow with her for a while. 

Now I just need to figure out how to help her 
keep believing that homework is fun!
