Product description

From the author

Letter G Dot Painting includes nine activity pages plus a thank-you page and a credit/copyright page, for eleven PDF pages total. Dot-paint glove, glue, grapes and gorilla pictures, then use uppercase G, lowercase g and combined Gg outlines. Two open dot grids invite children to make the letter shapes themselves.

Supply cotton swabs and paint for these letter-themed art projects. Say the picture words aloud and connect their initial sounds with G. The pages use painted dots rather than conventional handwriting tracing lines.
