- Grab a clipboard: Put a selection of worksheets on a clipboard with a pencil attached by a string, and you can take these with you on the go.
- Reusable Worksheets: Slip the letter S tracing pages into clear sheet protectors and give kids a dry erase marker. That way, they can practice over and over again without wasting paper.
- Letter Collage: After coloring in or tracing the letters on the worksheet, find pictures from magazines or newspapers to create a collage of items that start with S.
Reinforce Learning with Letter S Activities:
- Sand or soil writing: Spread a thin layer of sand or soil on a tray. Let children practice writing the letter S with their fingers, reinforcing the shape through touch.
- Sensory bins with S items: Alphabet sensory bins let children use multiple senses while learning. Fill a bin with items that start with S, such as spoons, small stones, socks, and sponges. Let children explore the items in the bin and name each item they find, practicing the sound of the letter S. As an added challenge, help them write a list of all the S items they find in the bin.
- Make snake crafts: Use playdough, newspaper, or craft paper to create S-shaped snake shapes, working to reinforce the shape of this letter.
