I have made this Phonics Letter of the Week unit to address the Kindergarten(Prep) level of learning. The contents of this packet provide teachers with a variety of games, activities and worksheets to help teach correct letter formation, written letter identification and recognition of initial letter sound.My aim when creating this book was to provide a unit for teaching one letter of the alphabet at a time.
