Alphabet Envelopes | Letter of the Week Activity Book

Cut out cards with letters from the alphabet. Then put together a special envelope for each letter. Put the letter cards into the letter envelope. Each card has a word with the focus letter and a picture for your students to color. Each letter has an envelope template with the focus letter on the front. Vowels come with two sets- one for the long sound and one for the short sound. These pair well with a preschool letter of the week program! Enjoy!

These cute cut out cards help practice coloring, recognizing letters and letter sounds, and practice writing and reading simple words. This project allows young students to celebrate letters and brainstorm words that begin with that letter. This hands on project will also help them practice fine motor control through coloring, cutting, and glueing. Create an envelope full of cute letter cards for each letter of the alphabet!

Then have then trace each word. You could choose to have them write the focus letter in a different color for emphasis. Then they can color each small picture. Then cut out the envelope template, fold, and glue the flaps where indicated to create an envelope. Have them write their names on the envelope and then color and decorate the letter envelope.
